Description

Naproxen Gastro-Resistant Tablets offer the same hard-hitting pain relief as our Naproxen 250mg and 500mg tablets, but with a special coating to help protect your stomach. Naproxen is classified as a Non-Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drug (NSAID), and is used to treat a range of painful muscular, joint, tendon and bone conditions. Benefits Of Naproxen Gastro-Resistant Tablets (250mg & 500mg) Because gastric irritation is a common side effect of long-term Naproxen use, these tablets are specially designed to break down in your lower intestine rather than in your stomach. Their gastro-resistant coating also helps to reduce the risk of side effects. Nevertheless, if you take this medication long-term - such as for the treatment of chronic conditions like arthritis, gout and menstrual pain, you’ll still need to take medication to protect your stomach. Ask our clinical team which treatment will work best alongside long-term Naproxen use. It’s also important to note that this medication can affect your body’s ability to renew your natural, protective stomach lining. This puts you at increased risk of developing issues such as stomach ulcers, since there is less of a barrier against stomach acids. Naproxen is much stronger than over-the-counter NSAIDs like Ibuprofen. This means it is only available with a prescription. The Independent Pharmacy provides quick, confidential consultations for assessment, so that you can be sure that this is the safest, most effective option for your needs. Is Naproxen Right For Me?
