Anaprox DS (Naproxen sodium)

Please read the instructions before using Anaprox DS (naproxen sodium tablets).

Do’s

• If you are taking Anaprox DS as an over-the-counter product, ensure to read all directions on the product package prior to administering this medication.
• If your healthcare provider has prescribed this medication, read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start taking it and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, consult your healthcare provider for clarification.
• Anaprox DS should be taken by mouth as directed by your healthcare provider, typically 2 or 3 times a day with a full glass of water (8 ounces/240 milliliters).
• Take this medication with food, milk, or an antacid to lessen stomach discomfort.
• The dosage of Anaprox DS depends on your medical condition and your response to the medication. To mitigate the risk of stomach bleeding and other side effects, take Anaprox-DS at the lowest effective dose and for the shortest duration possible.
• If you have a chronic condition, such as arthritis, continue taking this medication as directed by your healthcare provider.
• For some conditions, like arthritis, it may take up to two weeks of regular Anaprox DS intake before you experience full relief.
• If you are taking Anaprox DS "as needed" (not on a regular schedule), keep in mind that pain medications are most effective when used at the onset of pain. If you wait until the pain has intensified, the medication may not work as effectively.
• Seek immediate medical help if your condition persists or worsens, or if you suspect a serious medical problem. If you are using a nonprescription product to treat a fever, consult your healthcare provider promptly if the fever escalates or lasts more than 3 days.
