Frequently asked questions
Naproxen 500 before or after food?
After food. Take it with or just after a meal with a glass of water to reduce acidity and the risk of stomach ulcers.
Naproxen vs ibuprofen – which is better?
Both are NSAIDs. Naproxen lasts longer, so it is taken fewer times a day and suits period pain and arthritis, while ibuprofen is shorter-acting. Naproxen is thought to be a little safer for the heart, ibuprofen a little gentler on the stomach. Do not take both together.
Can I take naproxen with alcohol?
Keep alcohol to a minimum. Both irritate the stomach lining, and together they increase the chance of ulcers and bleeding.
Can I take naproxen and paracetamol together?
Yes, paracetamol does not interact with naproxen and the two are often combined for short periods. Avoid combining naproxen with any other NSAID.
