Naproxen

[playethic]

Anyone have any experiences with naproxen for IC pain? Has it helped? Not helped?

Has anyone taken it regularly for a long time?

I take Naproxen twice daily, 2 tablets each dose. I take it for arthritis. I don't have a lot of pain with IC, mostly burning and frequency. I'm not sure if Naproxen has helped with the IC or not.

I take it on occassion. Doesn't bother my IC; I am taking it now for back pain, don't know if it is really helping me.

I took naproxen for YEARS for pelvic pain/cramps and joint pain. Never did anything but its all my dr would give me when I was a pediatric pt. I'm not sure if this is correct but I have seen some other people post about how naproxen can cause IC to flare-hopefully one of them will respond. I think ibuprofen 800 work better personally. Tramadol works wonders for moderate pain and headaches and it doesnt usually make me feel ditzy or high. I like to take tramadol during the day because it doesnt make me drowsy either. Tylenol 3 or tylenol pm works good at night for me.
