A member asked:
Can you take naproxen and ibuprofen together?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: I wouldn't suggest taking both Naproxen and Ibuprofen together at the same time. The are both in the same class of medications, nsaids. I would suggest taking one or the other for a few days to determine which one is more effective for you. You could alternate doses during the day, but i doubt it would add anything significantly to your results.

No: Neither metaphors nor nsaids should be mixed. Mixing results in double the toxicity but no significant benefit (if full doses of one are used alone).
