No, you shouldn't. Both are NSAIDS ( non-steroidal anti-inflammoratories) and taken together will increase risk of bleeding ulcers and can be hard on your liver.

If your highly allergic to ibuprofen can you take naproxen sodium without worry?
No!!... a BIG NO! I'm allergic to ibuprofen such as Advil.. and taking naproxen sodium also have the same exact effect!. Don't take naproxen Sodium if you are allergic to ibuprofen!
If I had an allergic reaction to naproxen would Ibuprofen also cause the same reactions or are they different?
Aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen,& acetaminophen are different substances Although they are different there is in incresed liklihood you will be allergic to ibuprobin as well. I recently developed an allergy to both and have an identcal reaction (itchy welts on face). I had a reaction to Naproxen. Hives, itchy and swelling, but to this day I can take ibuprofen with no problems.
What was your hypothesis when you did which pain reliever dissolves the fastest?
i recently did this project and our hypothesis was that out of our four pain relievers (naproxen sodium - like aleve, acetaminophen - like tylenol, aspirin, and ibuprofen - like motrin), naproxen sodium would take the longest to dissolve while ibuprofen and acetaminophen would dissolve the quickest. our hypothesis was proved partially right: naproxen sodium did take the longest to dissolve. however, aspirin was the quickest, not acetaminophen and ibuprofen.
Can you take naproxen and sulfamethoxazole together?
Naproxen is essentially ibuprofen, so no you should not take it if you're allergic to ibuprofen. Basically, stay away from drugs that are in the same family as ibuprofen, because you could have an allergic reaction to those medications as well.. For example, ibuprofen is a NSAID, so you should stay away from other NSAID medicines such as, aspirin, naproxen, celecoxib, etc.

Can naproxen sodium and codeine phosphate with ibuprofen be taken together?
It can, but isn't necessary. Codeine is a stronger analgesic and with it having ibuprofen, it has the same benefit that naproxen would have if added. Kinda like taking codeine with 2 ibuprofens. Not needed. If more pain relief is needed you would want to see about an increased dosage of codeine w/ibuprofen... You shouldn't take ibuprofen and Naproxen together... both act the same way on the same receptors.. you'll only get more side effects and toxicity.
Can you take acetaminophen and Ibuprofen together with Naprosin?
You might take acetaminophen with ibuprofen. You might take acetaminophen with Naprosyn. But you CAN'T take ibuprofen and naproxen (Naprosyn) together, as long as both drugs are NSAID and works on the same receptors. Naproxen is a little bit more powerful than ibuprofen.
