Yes I believe Naproxen does put weight on, or if you are trying to diet you will have a hard job loosing it.

I never had any problem loosing weight on my other tablets of a similar nature. ,then my doctor changed me onto Naproxen November 2011 and since then I have put on over two stone.

I have tried dieting very strictly and no joy.

I have taken the next step in pain management myself ,I have stopped taking the naproxen and am now on herbs that work on inflammation ,and to my amazement they are working ,IT IS EARLY DAYS YET , so fingers crossed.

Yes, combining oxycodone and aleve cause no adverse reactions. However, unless you are taking oxycontin, it is more than likely you are taking a preparation of oxycodone and a drug similar to aleve such as acetaminophen (tylenol) or ibuprofen (advil). Your prescription bottle will be labeled with any mixer in the preparation. If it has a mixer in it aleve would probably do little to further relieve pain, and taking aleve on top of a mixer could potentially be hard on your liver. unless you are absolutely positive there is no mixer, I would not suggest taking aleve with oxycodone.

Yes, there is no problem in taking those 2 drugs together.

Yes, you can. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) works on a different part of the body than NSAID Drugs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). In fact, there is a study being performed in New Zealand to show the effect of taking an NSAID with acetaminophen (the study was performed with ibuprofen, but naproxen sodium and ibuprofen are in the same class of medication). The drug, marketed as Maxigesic, includes 500 milligrams of paracetamol (acetaminophen) and 150 milligrams of ibuprofen, and found no drug interaction. In fact, the study found the combination of acetaminophen and an NSAID drug improved the analgesic effect (pain relieving effect) by up to 37% (see references below). Additionally, Drugs.com shows no drug interactions between Aleve and Tylenol (naproxen sodium and acetaminophen).

Please be aware that both acetaminophen and naproxen sodium are contraindicated for certain individuals. Acetaminophen has been shown to cause liver damage at high dosages, and NSAID drugs, including Aleve and Advil, can cause severe stomach bleeding. Both of these conditions can be fatal. Those with liver damage should not take acetaminophen, and anyone with a history of stomach bleeding, or that has a risk of stomach bleeding, should not take NSAID drugs, including Aleve or Advil.

Somone answered and said BC Powder contains acetamenophin. You have been misinformed! Although hydrocodone contains acetamenophin, BC powder does not. The active ingredients in BC are aspirin and caffeine and no longer contains salicylamide after the formula change. Hydrocodone and BC Powder can both cause an upset stomach and can both cause stomach bleeding in extreme cases. Goody's powder contains acetamenophin.

Aleve™ is a brand name for the drug naproxen, which is classified as a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID for short). Both aspirin and naproxen can thin the blood; this effect is synergistic when the two are taken together. The combination can also irritate the stomach lining, especially when taken without food. That said, most people aren't going to suffer any serious consequences if they take an aspirin within the same 24-hour timeframe as a naproxen tablet. The two do the same thing in a similar way, which is why combining them (or taking them concurrently) doesn't make much sense. === === As mentioned above, both of these meds are gastrointenstinal irritants. That, combined with their platelet inhibiting function make them potentially dangerous when taken together, especially for patients with a history of ulcers or GI bleeds. Do not take these two meds together on an ongoing basis. If you experience stomach pains, heartburn, tarry or black stools, coffee ground vomiting or blood in your stool or vomit, discontinue both these meds at once and head for the ER. Both are serious GI irritants, and aspirin is a blood thinner, inhibiting platelet action and clotting factor. There is therefore a notable risk of GI hemorrhage with this drug combination. While not nearly as lethal as the famous barbituate/alcohol combination, serious counterindications still exist. I would talk to my doc about other painkiller/anti-inflamatory combinations that don't present this risk picture. I would also NOT take this combination myself.

The Naproxen Test is a test used to distinguish whether a fever of unknown origin (FUO) is a infectious in nature versus neoplastic related . In the test, Naproxen is administered to the patient and if fever breaks, it is assumed that patients fever is due to a neoplastic process. Therefore, I do not believe the naproxen test has anything to do with THC.

Whoever wrote the above answer was slightly confused with the question. According to my research, yes naproxen can cause a fals positive on a THC drug test.

The drug was originally synthesized by the company Syntex in 1971 and approved for human use in 1976. The specific method is complicated can the chemical formula can be found by following the Related Link listed below.

No advid does not contail acetylsalicylic acid. Only Bayer and aspirin.

I wouldn't advise taking it after it has expired, though, I doubt it's dangerous. The main reason there is an expiration date is because after a certain amount of time the medicine loses potency and doesn't work as well as it had originally.

They can under certain situations like for arthiritis, fevers etc; but you should get a prescription from a doctor. I'm a teen and when I took it my whole face was numb and I had some disturbed dreams also, but it did help with my pain.

well im not on the pill, but i have taken fluoxetine and co-codamol today and i feel okay, bit messed up but okay, considering i have abused co-codamol for the past few years i really wouldnt worry too much about it short term with fluoxetine

I would recommend against taking midol and aleve together if on the active ingredients listed includes either naproxen or ibuprofen. This is because naproxen is the same drug as aleve and ibuprofen works in a similar fashion as naproxen. Taking aleve with either of these two ingredients in your midol may produce an overdose.

Aleve or Naproxen sodium (INN) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used for the reduction of pain, fever,and inflammation caused by arthritis as wel as for a number of other problem. It has been regularly used in controlling the pain and inflammation in arthritis for many years.

Aleve is a good drug for minor aches and pains. It may help with chronic low back pain, depending on the severity. Stretching and walking every day is probably the best solution for low back pain.

I would not take anything that strong after its expiry date take it back to the chemist to be properly dealt with and get a new prescription.

yes. i have not read of any major side effects when taking both. aleve can cause g.i. bleeds if used to frequently ect. as many insaids can.

please contact a physician for any concerns.

No, Aleve is a NSAID (non steroidal anti inflammatory), while flexeril is a muscle relaxant that blocks nerve impulses that are being sent to the brain.

Aleve may be helpful to some patients who suffer sinus headache. That said, it is vitally important to check with your doctor before taking any medicine to be sure there won't be serious side effects or that there aren't contraindications to your own past health history. For a diagnosis, a doctor needs to be consulted. Preferably a headache specialist who is best able to diagnose, treat and manage headache disorders.
