What Is Aleve?
Aleve (naproxen sodium) is a prescription medication used to manage pain and inflammation caused by conditions such as arthritis, menstrual cramps, tendinitis, bursitis, and acute musculoskeletal injuries. It works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, which reduces the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain, swelling, and fever. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, naproxen sodium can provide effective, lasting relief so you can get back to daily activities.

Is Online Aleve Treatment Right for You?
Aleve (naproxen sodium) may be appropriate for adults experiencing mild to moderate pain or inflammation from conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, menstrual pain, gout flares, tendinitis, or acute muscle injuries. Our physicians will review your symptoms, medical history, and current medications to determine whether naproxen sodium is a safe and suitable choice for you.
Because naproxen sodium affects the gastrointestinal and cardiovascular systems, it is important to share any history of stomach ulcers, kidney disease, heart disease, or blood thinners. Your physician will use this information to recommend the appropriate dose and duration and to identify any contraindications before prescribing.

Frequently asked questions
Naproxen sodium is approved to treat pain and inflammation from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, tendinitis, bursitis, acute gout flares, menstrual cramps, and general mild to moderate pain. Your physician will confirm whether it is appropriate for your specific situation.
Over-the-counter Aleve is naproxen sodium at 220 mg per tablet with a maximum daily dose intended for short-term self-care. Prescription naproxen and naproxen sodium are available in higher strengths (up to 500 mg per tablet) and are dosed under physician supervision for chronic or more severe conditions.
Most people begin to notice pain relief within one to two hours of taking naproxen sodium. For inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, the full anti-inflammatory effect may take several days of consistent dosing to become apparent.
Common side effects include stomach upset, heartburn, nausea, headache, and dizziness. More serious but less common risks include gastrointestinal bleeding, elevated blood pressure, fluid retention, and kidney or liver effects. Taking naproxen with food or milk can help reduce stomach irritation.
Naproxen sodium is generally not recommended for people who have had a heart attack or stroke, those with active peptic ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding, individuals with severe kidney or liver disease, or people with a known allergy to NSAIDs or aspirin. Your Doctronic physician will screen for these contraindications during your evaluation.
Naproxen sodium can interact with blood thinners such as warfarin, other NSAIDs, aspirin, certain blood pressure medications, diuretics, lithium, and methotrexate. Always share a complete list of your current medications and supplements with your physician so interactions can be assessed before prescribing.
