Taking naproxen as needed for arthritic pain in my neck for a few months with food and now my stomach hurts. ok to take vimovo (esomeprazole and naproxen) to soothe my stomach?

No: Don't take this if stomach hurting on naproxen. See your doctor and I would avoid naproxen as well until you are evaluated

Hold off: That would be fine as it has a stomach protecting medication like prilosec mixed in with the naproxen, but I would take prilosec by itself for a few days first to make sure your stomach is OK before you put any more naproxen in your stomach. If it doesn't change despite the prilosec, see your md.
