Naproxen

I have been prescribed Naproxen today for the pain in my legs. Does anyone take this and is it any good? I’m not dx.

Thanks xx

Hi Nicky, Naproxen is a very strong painkiller used to treat sciatica type pains. It is not for long term use as can cause damage to the kidney. Did the gp offer a second opinion? Chis

Thanks Chris. I think it’s just to tide me over for now. Gp wants me to have my epilepsy nurse appointment next week then they will sort out a second opinion. X

Pleased that you are getting a second opinion after you’ve seen the epi nurse. Keep your chin up! Chis I found naproxen made me dizzy at first but it went after a few days
