Dr. Paul Grin answered

Specializes in Pain Management

Yes, you can: only for a short period of time. Big quantities or long-term use of naproxen sodium can cause chronic nephritis. Always talk with your physician to make sure you can use certain medication safely, particularly if you have kidney disease. Take care.
