Need safe storage: Please store medicines safely and carefully to avoid mixups.. Labeling them boldly and keeping them in separate boxes will help.

No harm: As long as she took only one, i anticipate no harm was caused by her intake of naproxen. Please educate her as to what pills belong to whom, and for which indications. To be sure, for the next few days, watch for signs of stomach upset, nausea, or GI bleeding.

No worry.: There is actually a new medicine called vimovo, (esomeprazole and naproxen) which combines 500mg of Naproxen with continuous release Omeprazole (20mg), to be taken twice daily.
