A member asked:
Is naproxen/nsaids causing stomach pain? i've been taking it for 4mos and goodys powder for about 7 atleast 3-4x a day.it never bothered me until now.

NSAID's likely: There are many contributors to gastric problems including: foods, dysmotility, pregnancy, smoking, nsaids, drugs, alcohol, stress, H.pylori infection to name a few. In cases such as yours, stopping the NSAIDs & aspirin should help. Adding a PPI (e.g. Prilosec, Prevacid, (lansoprazole) Nexium) may speed recovery.
