The use of naproxen should be limited to the lowest possible dose for the shortest length of treatment.

The recommended adult dose of naproxen tablets for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis ranges from 250 mg to 500 mg twice daily. Take naproxen with food or milk. The suppository form of naproxen is usually used once daily to replace one of the oral doses.

If you are maintained on a dose of 750 mg or 1,000 mg daily, the long-acting (sustained-release) form of the medication may be substituted for the immediate-release form. In many cases, this will allow the medication to be taken only once daily. The sustained-release form of the medication should be swallowed whole.

The dose of naproxen for children treated for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis is based on body weight. The recommended dose is given in 2 divided doses every 12 hours. Naproxen suspension is often used for young children who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Shake the suspension gently before using.

Use an oral syringe to measure each dose of the liquid, as it gives a more accurate measurement than household teaspoons. Naproxen should not be given to children under the age of 2 years, as the safety and effectiveness of the medication for this age group have not been established.

When used to treat pain or muscle and skeletal injuries, the usual recommended adult dose of naproxen is 250 mg 2 or 3 times daily or 375 mg 2 times daily.

For treatment of menstrual pain and cramps, the recommended first dose is 500 mg followed by 250 mg every 6 to 8 hours as needed. No more than 1,250 mg should be taken in one day. Alternatively, one 500 mg tablet may be taken twice daily as recommended by your doctor.

Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.

It is important to use Pms Naproxen exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, use it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not use a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

Store Pms Naproxen at room temperature, protect it from light and moisture, and keep it out of the reach of children.

Do not dispose of medications in wastewater (e.g. down the sink or in the toilet) or in household garbage. Ask your pharmacist how to dispose of medications that are no longer needed or have expired.
