A member asked:

I have been taken naproxen for abdomanl pains and are not working can i take my celebrex (celecoxib) too, to see if the pain subsides

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not recomended: naproxen and celebrex are both NSAIDS and in general we do not recommend they be taken simultaneously. they are of different classes but two NSAIDS together is not wise. You could try Tylenol (acetaminophen) with either medication
