A member asked:
I am on naproxyn for knee pain. can it be taken on a regular basis. if so, what are the side effects ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: The major risk is GI including ulcers and bleeds. I do want my patient to take it long term. If it is, then a protein pump inhibitor such as Prilosec should also be taken daily to protect the GI tract.
