Aleve, which contains naproxen, can potentially be hard on the stomach, as it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It may cause gastrointestinal issues such as irritation, ulcers, or bleeding, especially with long-term use or in individuals with a history of stomach problems. To minimize risks, it's advisable to take it with food and consult a healthcare provider if you have concerns. Always follow dosing instructions and discuss any pre-existing conditions with your doctor.

How long does it take Aleve to dissolve in your stomach?

Aleve typically starts to dissolve in the stomach within 20-30 minutes after ingestion. The active ingredient in Aleve, naproxen, is absorbed into the bloodstream and then begins to exert its effects.


Does Aleve have the same calming affect to the stomach as Tylenol?

Aleve (naproxen) and Tylenol (acetaminophen) have different effects on the stomach. Aleve, being a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), can irritate the stomach lining and may cause gastrointestinal issues, especially with long-term use. In contrast, Tylenol is generally considered gentler on the stomach and is often recommended for those who are sensitive to NSAIDs. Therefore, Tylenol typically has a more calming effect on the stomach compared to Aleve.

Will Aleve show up in a swab mouth drug test?

No. Most drug tests are used to identify parent drugs or their products from metabolism. Most companies use drug tests to detect illegal substances whether it be illegal by law or by their policy. Aleve is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and unnecessary to test for. I have never seen a drug test that includes Aleve. A swab mouth uses your saliva and detects drugs of recent use (within 3 days) with the detection depending on the drugs/ metabolite present in the saliva. The drugs tested for are usually the popularly abused drugs (alcohol, stimulants, marijuana, opiates, etc). I do want to mention that Aleve can lead to ulcers in the stomach and potential stomach upset when taken on an empty stomach. Obviously, the greater amount taken, the greater the risk. Remember that pain is usually a signal from the body something is wrong. By masking it you are not necessarily treating the source (although Aleve does have anti-inflammation properties).
