What is Naprelan
NaproxenThe Generic name of this drug
Treatment SummaryNaproxen is a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory medication that was first introduced in 1976 as a prescription drug and then approved for over-the-counter use in 1994. It can be used to treat acute pain, rheumatic diseases, and migraines. Naproxen is generally well tolerated and is often prescribed as the first treatment option for pain relief. It is available in immediate and delayed release forms, as well as in combination with other medications (sumatriptan and esomeprazole) to provide additional benefits.

Effectiveness
How Naprelan Affects PatientsNaproxen is a type of painkiller that reduces inflammation and fever. It works by blocking a certain enzyme (cyclo-oxygenase) that helps produce a type of chemical (prostaglandin) that can cause pain and swelling. While naproxen can effectively reduce pain, it can also lead to an increase in blood pressure and an increased risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Taking other medications such as corticosteroids or anticoagulants at the same time as naproxen can increase the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, as well as having a history of gastrointestinal ulcers.
How Naprelan works in the bodyNaproxen works by blocking two enzymes, COX-1 and COX-2. COX-1 is a normal enzyme found in the stomach lining, while COX-2 is an enzyme that produces prostaglandins involved in pain, fever, and inflammation. By blocking these enzymes, naproxen reduces prostaglandin production, which helps reduce pain, fever, and inflammation. However, it also blocks the COX-1 enzyme, which can cause side effects like gastrointestinal upset and kidney problems.

The prescribed measure of Naprelan is contingent upon the identified condition, including Menstrual Distress (Dysmenorrhea), Migraine and Toothache. The dosage fluctuates as per the mode of delivery (e.g. Tablet, extended release or Tablet, delayed release) detailed in the table beneath.Condition

Naprelan Toxicity & Overdose RiskNaproxen is available without a prescription, but this increases the chances of an overdose. Generally, the effects of such an overdose are minor, including drowsiness, fatigue, stomach pain, and nausea and vomiting. No specific antidote exists for naproxen overdose, however the symptoms should disappear with proper care. Naproxen should not be taken by pregnant women during their third trimester as it may lead to the early closure of the fetus's ductus arteriosus.

7/20/2012 This medication really helped my arthritis. I didn't experience any negative side effects, and only having to take it once a day was great.

7/27/2011 I've had Lyme Disease for 18 years and, as I've gotten older, the joint and muscle pain has become unbearable at times. In 2009, I was prescribed opiates to help with the pain; however, they did not work well for me. This drug is a miracle pill in comparison and doesn't come with the same cardiovascular risks.

4/26/2010 This pain reliever has been much better for me than oxycoten. I only have to take it once a day, and it's completely effective at keeping the pain and swelling down from my surgery.

6/21/2011 While this medication did alleviate the pain I was experiencing, I unfortunately developed a painful rash with blisters. If you experience any similar side effects, make sure to see a doctor right away.

10/18/2010 I've been taking this medication for my bunion and it's worked great in terms of healing the physical issue. However, I'm now dealing with a range of uncomfortable side effects like heartburn, nausea, and skin soreness that make the whole experience less than ideal.

10/22/2011 I was given this medication for my hip pain, but it has done nothing to alleviate the discomfort. It's basically worthless; I would have been better off eating an M&M.
