Naprosyn (active ingredient: naproxen) is a prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and decrease swelling. It may be prescribed for short-term pain relief or for ongoing inflammatory conditions, depending on your healthcare provider’s instructions.
Naprosyn is used to relieve mild to moderate pain from different conditions, such as:
By reducing pain and inflammation, Naprosyn can help improve comfort and make daily activities easier.
Naprosyn is also used to treat conditions that involve inflammation in the joints and surrounding tissues, including:
These conditions can cause symptoms such as joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced movement. Naprosyn helps manage these symptoms, but it does not cure the underlying condition.
Naprosyn may also be used to relieve the signs and symptoms of acute gout, a painful condition caused by uric acid crystal buildup in the joints. During a gout flare, Naprosyn can help reduce pain, swelling, redness, and inflammation.
Naprosyn belongs to a class of medications called NSAIDs. It works by reducing the production of substances in the body called prostaglandins, which contribute to pain, swelling, and inflammation.
By lowering prostaglandin levels, Naprosyn helps relieve pain and inflammation caused by arthritis, gout, menstrual cramps, injuries, and other painful conditions.
Naprosyn is taken by mouth exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. It is usually taken 2 to 3 times per day, depending on the condition being treated and your prescribed dose.
Take each dose with a full glass of water. Swallow the tablet whole, and do not break, crush, or chew it unless your healthcare provider tells you to do so. To help reduce stomach upset, Naprosyn may be taken with food, milk, or an antacid.
After taking Naprosyn, avoid lying down for at least 10 minutes. This helps reduce the risk of irritation in the throat, esophagus, or stomach.
Naprosyn can increase the risk of stomach or intestinal bleeding, which can be serious and may be more likely in older adults. To reduce this risk, take the lowest effective dose for the shortest amount of time needed to control your symptoms.
Do not take more Naprosyn, take it more often, or use it for longer than prescribed by your healthcare provider.
The recommended dose of Naprosyn depends on the condition being treated, your age, your overall health, and your response to treatment.
For pain, menstrual cramps, tendonitis, or bursitis, the usual dose is 250 mg to 500 mg twice daily, as directed by your healthcare provider.
For osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or ankylosing spondylitis, dosing may vary. A common regimen is 500 mg initially, followed by 250 mg every 6 to 8 hours as needed, with a maximum of 1,250 mg per day for the first day. Long-term dosing should be determined by your healthcare provider.
For acute gout, the usual dose is 750 mg at the start of the gout attack, followed by 250 mg every 8 hours until symptoms improve, as directed by your healthcare provider.
For juvenile idiopathic arthritis, naproxen liquid suspension is often preferred because the dose is based on the child’s body weight. A typical dose is 5 mg/kg twice daily. Naproxen tablets may only be appropriate for children who can safely take the required tablet strength, as determined by their healthcare provider.
Always follow your healthcare provider’s dosing instructions and do not exceed the recommended daily amount.
Naprosyn (Naproxen) is available in the following forms and strength:
Before taking Naprosyn, tell your healthcare provider about your medical history, allergies, and all medications or supplements you are taking. Naprosyn belongs to a class of medications called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can cause serious side effects in some people.
Do not use Naprosyn if you have had an allergic reaction to naproxen, aspirin, or other NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen or celecoxib. Seek medical help right away if you develop symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, such as rash, swelling of the face or throat, severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
Naproxen may increase the risk of heart attack or stroke, which can be serious or even fatal. This risk may be higher if Naprosyn is taken at high doses, used for a long time, or used by people who already have heart disease. However, heart attack or stroke can also occur in people without known heart disease or risk factors.
Seek emergency medical attention if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, sudden weakness on one side of the body, trouble speaking, or sudden vision changes.
If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your healthcare provider before using Naprosyn. Naproxen may harm an unborn baby or cause complications during delivery, especially if used later in pregnancy. Your healthcare provider can help determine whether Naprosyn is appropriate for you.
Naprosyn can increase the risk of stomach ulcers, intestinal bleeding, or tears in the stomach or intestines. These complications can be life-threatening and may occur without warning symptoms. The risk is higher in older adults and in people with a history of ulcers or bleeding.
Contact your healthcare provider right away if you develop severe stomach pain, black or tarry stools, vomiting blood, or vomit that looks like coffee grounds.
Do not use Naprosyn right before or after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, also known as heart bypass surgery. Using naproxen around this type of surgery may increase the risk of serious heart-related complications.
Naproxen may raise blood pressure and may also make some blood pressure medications work less effectively. If you have high blood pressure, your healthcare provider may ask you to check your blood pressure more often while taking Naprosyn.
Take Naprosyn exactly as prescribed, using the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed to control your symptoms.
Take Naproxen by mouth exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. It is usually taken 2 to 3 times per day, depending on the condition being treated. Take each dose with a full glass of water, about 8 ounces or 240 mL. To help reduce stomach upset, Naproxen may be taken with food, milk, or an antacid. Avoid lying down for at least 10 minutes after taking it.
Talk to your healthcare provider or pharmacist before taking Naproxen with other medications. Naproxen can interact with certain drugs and may increase the risk of side effects, especially bleeding, kidney problems, or changes in blood pressure. Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you are taking.
Pain relief from Naproxen may last about 8 to 12 hours, depending on the dose, the condition being treated, and your individual response. Some people may feel relief sooner, while others may take longer to notice improvement.
For short-term pain, Naproxen may begin working within about 1 hour, with full effects often felt within 2 hours. For inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, it may take 1 to 2 weeks of regular use to notice improvement, and several weeks may be needed to feel the full benefit.
