How much Aleve equals 40 mg of prednisone?
Since they are two completely different meds, there is no way to compare the two. Aleve is an NSAID (non steroidal anti inflammatory) and Prednisone is a steroid. Trying to compare the two is impossible.
Aleve is naproxen, which is an NSAID or Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug. It can be perfectly safe as long as you follow the directions. You should not take NSAIDs if you have a history of stomach ulcers, because these drugs can be hard on your stomach. You should not take it if you are on a blood thinner like Coumadin, because NSAIDs can also cause blood thinning, and taking both can cause internal bleeding.
So long as you don't fit into those categories, NSAIDs are good for relieving pain with inflammation, such as arthritis, sprains or strains, rheumatism or bursitis, and other types of deep joint or muscle pain. Take this medicine with food because of the stomach upset side effect.

Does naproxen cause fluid weight gain?
I have been on Naproxen for about a week now. My face is very puffy with bags under my eyes. I feel like a big cow. It has helped my knee, but it's going in the trash today after reading dozens of comments with others that had the same reaction.
Usually, yes, with no problem, and you can drive, too. However, I found if I downed aleve & Zyrtec all at once/together, I became really drowsy/fatigued. This only happened today, and I fell asleep for approx. 3 hours from 11:45am-2:52pm.
If you take zyrtec (or aleve...1-2 pills for aleve, 1 for ALL day for zyrtec), space one of them apart. For instance, take the zyrtec (or aleve) first, wait 1-2+ hours, then take the aleve (or zyrtec). Spacing it out a bit leaves no reaction, at least in my experience. (also I am 25/Female, if that makes any difference...I take them both due to allergic reactions to bug bites/mosquito bites, & headaches/muscle aches).
Does naproxen have codine in it?
