Naproxen Side Effects
UpdatedHelp! I've been taking Naproxen off & on for a complaint in my hands & they give me such awful stomach cramps & seen to cause me to be more tired & lose concentration etc that I stop taking them & just suffer the pain in my hands as its less bother than the aparant side effects from the Naproxen. Am I alone with this or does anyone else suffer?

Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so the tiredness and etc. can be normal side effects, they are also well-known to cause stomach irritation, because they can cause the stomach to produce more acid.
Have you discussed these problems with your doctor?

How high of a dosage have you been taking?
There are various solutions that your doctor may be able to help you with, such as lowering the dosage, using a different medication or using some type of antacid.
