A member asked:
Hello, i am donating platelets tomorrow morning, but have a bad headache. i know i can't take aspirin, but would sodium naproxene be okay (aleve)? thank you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would not. Put a cool moist compress on your forehead & relax. Any NSAID like Aleve can have platelet related effects. If you neeed to take something to get through this just re-schedule the platelet donation.
