A member asked:

Is aleve (naproxen) asprin or does it have asprin in it?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No to both: Aleve (naproxen) is neither Aspirin nor does it contain aspirin. It is a different chemical but in the same class of medications as Aspirin called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids). As such, it can have some of the same set of common side effects.
