Aleve (naproxen): The most effective over-the-counter drug to reduce the effects of tendonitis.

Naprosyn (naproxen): I was amazed at how quickly my pain was reduced, after just 3 doses of Naprosyn. I had suffered from the pain of tendonitis in my thumb/hand for 5 weeks before taking the medicine. Of course I wish I had seen the doctor weeks ago.

Aleve (naproxen): Aleve helped with pain. Took 1 pilll after dinner but had bad side effects. Stomach pain really sharp, bloating, diarrhea, my intestines were making noises , runny bloody stools. Pain was unbearable. No more Aleve for me.

naproxen: I am taking this medicine for Tendonitis from shoulder to wrist. Before Naproxen I had zero strength and very minimal movement. After a week on Naproxen (after 2 hours) I have most movement and strength. Side effects are nausea but it is mild. Apparently, the anti-inflammatory properties are just as beneficial to healing, as is the pain relief (relaxation of tendons).

Anaprox (naproxen): Did cause slight drowsiness, but controlled the pain of aggravated calcific tendonitis in my shoulder much better than I expected. Allowed me to sleep at night again and regain much range of motion.

naproxen: Medicine worked great. Took 1 tablet a day to keep the knee swelling and stiffness away. Only side effects seem to be bloating and gas. Haven't take in two weeks (surgery done) and my symptoms are reducing. Looking at taking again since my surgery I have swelling but no pain.

naproxen: Does not help with pain, just with swelling.
