round pink mova 250 m25 pill ## This is Naproxen Sodium 250mgs, a generic prescription strength Naprosyn. This is just a little stronger than what you would get if you bought a bottle of Aleve over the counter. ## What is mova 250 m25 prescribed for? ## Well it is basically a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, like I said in the above post, it is Naproxen Sodium, so it is prescribed to treat mild pain and inflammation. Like I said, nonsteroidal, so it doesn't react with as many meds, or have as many side effects as steroids do, and since it is non-narcotic, it is also safer when someone just has mild pain for some reason, and their problems don't warrant heavy pain meds. I am going to post the link to the monograph for Naproxen so you can read some more details! Naproxen Further In...

I found this pill in my kids room...just wondering do people abuse this drug? Please let me know ## I heard that some people have used it recreationally ... just wondering..I'm worried and am hoping my kid is not hooked on them.. ## Naproxen will not get someone high, it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. It is commonly sold over the counter in a lower dosage as Aleve or generic or store brands. This is, however, a prescription strength tablet, so your child should not have it. It is illegal to have this without a valid prescription. The other operative question you may want to look into is what your child thinks it is, do they think it is something they can get high off of, like a narcotic? Have they been taking other medications that they shouldn't be?

Elongated pink pill with MOVA on one side and 500 M50 on the other. What is it for? ## what kind of pill is this ## The imprint MOVA / 500 M50 is 500 mg Naproxen. You can see a picture Here to verify. ## What Troy posted is correct, but the image file is no longer available. However, to add more details, Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling.

I was prescribed Movantik a week ago with the enclosed instructions suggesting that I take 1 tablet in the morning and eat nothing for an hour, which I've haven't done yet because I must have coffee immediately upon waking or otherwise remain nauseous until I do. My question is this: Can I take Movantik after drinking a cup of coffee with cream? Not knowing whether that's ok I've taken the med at bedtime instead for several days now, which A) causes cramps throughout the night + B) was not very effective, i.e. did not produce a BM after I woke up, but I suggesting to me that it likely works better while one is awake and more active after dosing. I'm reluctant to do so however, until I have this question answered. ## Without offering medical advice, all I can say is t...

An oval pink pill w/ Mova on one side & 500/M50 on other side, what is it? ## just wanted to know if it was a pain pill or what and what the side effects are ## This is actually just Naproxen Sodium 500mgs, a generic for Naprosyn. This is the same substance you can purchase over the counter in medications like Aleve, this is just a prescription strength. So it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory.

Why am I gaining weight every day by taking Movantic (even if I eat just a little or nothing)? ## I have also gained about 10lbs since starting movantik.. ## Have been taking Movantik since 2016. I have gained 40 pounds and have become prediabetic even though I am on a strict diet ## Hello Connie, According to the National Institute of Health during their case study less than 1% of the patients who were given the pill showed symptoms of weight gain and thus they determined that this is not an adverse effect caused by the medicine. This does not mean that you are not being effected by the weight gain, it may simply means that it not common and that if proven to be the cause you would be among the very rare cases. If you are concerned that you are gaining weight despite doing your best to...

I just picked up a RX for Movantik and am so ready to start it! I have been so constipated for months and bloated too. Is there a better time of day to take it? Morning or night? I read the post about how well it can work the first day or two but does this mean I should take before bed or in the morning? Thank you in advance for any advice! ## The FDA generally suggests it be taken in the morning. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including stomach pain, diarrhea, increased sweating, yawning, and irritability. Are you on any other medications? Have you started taking this one, yet?

Hao effective % tage wise is MOVANTIK with the culprit of OIC? I have had a pain pump put in a year ago with 95% Morphine and 5% Marcaine. And oral medicines of morphine and NorcoT10-325 daily for pain breakthrough. I have had to use Milk of Magnesium for a year as well, due to OIC. It gets to be such a burden not to be able to be and feel normal again along with the weight that I need to gain in a bad way. SO BOTTOM LINE WHOM OUT THERE CAN TELL ME IF THIS STUFF WORKS? WHEN LINZESS CAME OUT I TRIED IT BUT WITH NO LUCK. DOES IT REALLY WORK? ## It works VERY well, but plan on staying home the first time you take it, because two or three times that day, you will have the largest bowel movements you could imagine, at least twice as large as the largest you have ever had before, and they wil...

Is MOVA 500 a prescription drug? I have arthritis of the spine and wonder if this is better then taking prescription pain killers? ## This contains 500mgs of Naproxen and no, it is not a dosage that is available over the counter. It is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, that is used to treat pain, swelling and fever. When it comes to taking any type of pain killer, there aren't really any that are better/safer than any other. They all carry risks, even the over the counter products. Side effects for this one can include: nausea, headache, drowsiness and stomach irritation. Read more: Are there any comments or questions?

I have been suddenly taken off of movantik because my insurance no longer covers it. I took it for OIC, it worked very well. This past week I’ve had to go without it and and I have experienced bloating, anxiety, sweats. Also I can't go to the bathroom no matter what I take in its place. Has anyone experienced anything like this? ## What else have you tried? It's kind of hard to make any suggestions, without knowing more details. There is another option available called Relistor, but since it is a name brand, your insurance may not cover it, either. Ref: Resistor Information When I was on opiates for pain, I had luck with just increasing my fiber intake using a fiber supplement. What does your normal diet consist of? Do you take in lots of leafy greens, and whole grains? ##...

My husband was on Linzess and it caused his blood pressure to go up and had a heart attack. Now the doctor has put him Monvantik and his blood has been going back up. It doesn't say that it causes high blood pressure online, but we are starting to wonder if this is the cause of his problem. Has anyone else had a problem with Monvantik? ## That is not a listed side effect, according to FDA reports, but there is never any way to know how any medication may affect any given person that takes it. Other users have reported similar occurrences, though. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and withdrawals (if someone is using opiates.) Is he on any other medications? What does his normal diet consist of? Does he eat a lot of salty...
