A member asked:
Upon advice from a friend i took 600 mg ibuprofen with a single aleve (naproxen) about 5 hours ago.. should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO , but: Take either one of the other . It is not good to take both together. These drugs are very similar but together can additive side effects especially GI problems. Take which ever one you like but stick with the best. Also avoid alcohol with this. Best wishes.
