Didnt help me either. I think its like ibuprophen. Can upset your stomach.

It has never helped me. The only over the counter medicine that helps sometimes is tylenol or advil but only when i am inflamed on top of my pain. Otherwise the only pain killer that helps me regularly is tramadol prescription. Gentle hugs

I take it but not regularly as it's not good for the stomach lining. I take omeprozol at the same time when I do use.
I find it lasts longer than taking ibuprofen but does not take pain away completely just takes the edge of so you can get on with things

I had it for 2 weeks when I had Costochonditis. My GP wouldn't prescribe naproxen for any longer because of the stomach problems it causes, it didn't really work for me anyway.
