A member asked:
I take naproxen sodium at night for my arthritis, now i have the flu, how soon can i safely take aspirin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No need for aspirin: If you're taking naproxen, there is no point in also taking aspirin. Naproxen will do everything aspirin would do in limiting symptoms of influenza.
