What Is Naproxin Used To Treat

IS DUOFLEX A COMBINATION OF NAPROXIN AND MOTRIN? ## Hello, Peg! How are you? No, it actually doesn't contain the active ingredient from either one. Duoflex contains the active ingredient Carisoprodol, which is a muscle relaxant, and Diclofenac, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. It's used to treat pain, swelling and muscle spasms. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, dry mouth and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I think that answers my questions. Thanks. ## You are very welcome! Feel free to post back, if there's anything else I can help with!

NAPROXIN OR IBUPROFEN, WHICH IS BETTER ## Hi IETTY, Depending on the dose, both of these medications could effectively handle the pain associated with a toothache. Some people however prefer Naproxen over Ibuprofen because of certain side effects and that it may be easier on their stomach. Others find a few hundred mgs of Ibuprofen to be more than sufficient for a toothache. There are just many different reasons for choosing one over the other... One patient review I found stated that 400mgs of Ibuprofen every 4 to 6 hours was sufficient enough to take care of their toothache; although I haven't come across any specific details on Naproxen's equivalent dose for this same treatment. I think it will simply come down to which medication you react best to. Have you tried either one ...

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, stomach irritation, and easy bruising.
