A member asked:
I took one aleve(first time ever)in october and since than have had stomach pain/cramps 24/7. doctor diagnosed me with gastritis. ppi's do not work.

One aleve (naproxen): One aleve (naproxen) will not cause gastritis, but worsen symtoms for a short time yes. If PPI's are not helping you should see a gastroenterologist for confirmation with an exam endoscopically. Perhaps it is incorrect diagnosis?
