User Reviews for Naproxen

I had tremendous stomach pain worse than I experienced using Aspirin. The bleeding stomach was so painful that I couldn't feel any pain relief. Tylenol works best for me. Safe and comfortable as Tylenol it literally looses your blood vessels to make your blood easier to flow through your body. Avoid Aleve.

Hip Pain and Tendon pain in my right leg. Medicine gives temporary relief and I am thinking of asking my doctor for an alternative

It quickly reduces endometriosis pain, however, I get extremely sleepy after taking it and medicine hardly ever effects me this way.

Took the medication as prescribed, with food and it still caused serious stomach pain. I had to stop after 3 days and after 4 days I am unable to eat because of my burning stomach pain. Do no take.

I was on 800 mg. Motrin for about 25 years for arthritis in my lower back and neck. My Dr. decided that I needed to switch things up and move to something less harsh on my stomach. I have been taking Naproxen 500mg. for nearly 5 years now. It worked, it was easy on my system until about 3 weeks ago and I began to have unbearable pain in my chest, left arm, left neck, and left shoulder blade. Thought I was having a heart attack! Emergency room visit, EKG was normal, labs normal, (however cholesterol 560), but that's another Springer show. Read More Read Less

Took my pain away a felt great with the pain I was having.

I used this medication a few years ago. I ended up having a reaction and had painful mouth ulcers everywhere in my mouth and throat. They were as painful as canker sores, so anyone who suffers from them should be careful. I never take any products hat has naproxen in it anymore. Worked well for pain but the side affect wasn't worth it

Eased the pain to the extent that I could move my body normally where as before I was restricted. Didn't give 100% relief. About 80%.

I experienced an upset stomach and RED blood in my feces after taking it. But it went away after I stopped. I would like to know what the main cause of the bleeding was?

The ONLY migraine cocktail that works well for me is 1 Naproxen 500mg Tablet 1 Sumatriptan 100mg Tablet 1 Promethazine 50mg Tablet and 1 Clonazepam 1mg Tablet This works 99.9% of the time. I have found it to work quickly, and it does not cause stomach upset. Thank heaven for generic medications and migraine medications!

I took this for a pinched nerve 3 yrs ago. I experienced extreme memory loss, hallucinations and numbness in my arms & face with no good results for relieving pain I took the generic Gabapentin.

I took this for 3 yrs due to a severely inflamed tendon and nerve damage in my left arm. It worked fairly well for inflammation for a while, but eventually caused me to have heartburn every time I took a dosage. The heartburn went away when I stopped taking Naproxen.

I get tummy pain from it but it helps with the pain

I actualy havnt started taking this drug yet but if it effects me the way it affects some people I'll be sure to change thanks for the forewarning.

I was unaware of the possible problem with fluid retention. I took Naproxen several days.....have had episode of arrthmias from yesterday to this evening. I have had arrthmias and am on toperolxl00am and 50 mg. pm also flecanide 150 am/pm potassium 10mg am/pm armour thyroid 90 mg am....on/off triamt/hctz 37.5-25apo MY QUESTION....I recall at least 2 occasions where I feel I had arrthmyias within a day of taking Naproxen. I was also holding fluid. I read on the site not to take Naproxen with fluid retention. I had not taken my water pill, just tried to take it occasionally. previous episode in the winter, I also was taking Naproxen not realizing it could cause a problem for me. I don't plan to take any again! I suspect it could have triggered my already pre disposed arrthmias.....I just want to avoid all I can! Don't want to cause a problem for company, just want to know if this is a possible reason for my arrthmyia...want to avoid every possible trigger I can! I am 65 and appreciate any info you can give. Thank YouRead More Read Less

Finger joints are severely sore and misshaped. Severe pain to use. Naproxam reduces the swelling and reduces the pain.

Elevated blood pressure with use of naproxen

Terrible pain after 3 days in esophagus spasms lasting 15 min . And for 12 hours later still pain every 15 or 20 min.Had dark stools and constipated. Had to quit using them .

I had been taking another arthritis medicine but it hadn't been working for several years. Naproxen has been great.
