What to do if i have been taking naproxen 500 twice a day for some time and can not find it here where i am can i take ibuprofen 600 instead?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Take the Ibuprofen 3 times daily with meals. You can substitute Aleve 2 tablets twice daily for the prescription naproxen. The dose of Aleve will give you 440 mg of Naproxen twice daily.
