A member asked:
What if you accidentally take 4 aleves (naproxen) and feel fine?

Don't do it again: That is well above the recommended single dose. Repeating this dose can lead to significant GI and kidney problems.

That's a lot...: The recommended dose is 500mg at a time (maximum) and 1375mg per day (in divided doses). You took too much at once, but apparently your body handled it that time.
