✔ First-line treatment for Gout attacks
✔ Eases most attacks in 12-24h
✔ NSAID medication
✔ Reduces inflammation and relieves pain
Naproxen is a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) that works by reducing inflammation and relieving pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints and muscles.
A short course of a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) such as Naproxen is the first-line treatment for a Gout attack and will quickly ease most attacks within 12-24 hours. The sooner that medication is started, the more rapid the response. Many people with Gout like to have a supply of tablets on standby just in case an attack occurs. They are usually needed only for a few days until the inflammation and pain subside.
Before taking Naproxen, you should read the manufacturer’s printed Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) from inside the pack. It will give you more information about Naproxen and provide you with a full list of the side effects which you may experience from taking it.
The recommended dose for the treatment of Acute Gout is 750mg for 1 dose, then 250mg every 8 hours until the attack has passed. Tablets should be swallowed with a drink of water, preferably with or after food.
Along with their useful effects, most medicines can cause unwanted side effects although not everyone experiences them. The unwanted effects often improve as your body adjusts to the new medicine, but please speak with your doctor or pharmacist if they continue or become troublesome. You will find a full list of possible side effects in the Patient Information Leaflet (PIL) supplied with your medicine.
Stop taking Naproxen and seek medical help immediately if you experience any of the following serious side effects:
Please note that Naproxen can make Colitis and Crohn’s disease worse. Occasionally stomach ulcers may develop.
Some anti-inflammatory/pain relieving medicines (particularly at high doses and in long-term treatment) may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke.
Please tell the prescriber if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription. This is because Naproxen can affect the way some medicines work, and some medicines can have an effect on Naproxen. In the event of a medical emergency, you should tell your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse that you have taken Naproxen and when you did. Do not take Naproxen with other medicines unless your doctor tells you that you can.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of the following medicines:
Do not take Naproxen:
Warnings & Precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking Naproxen:
Medicines such as Naproxen may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack or stroke.

Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment.
If you have heart problems, have had a previous stroke or think that you might be at risk of these conditions (for example if you have high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, or are a smoker) you should discuss your treatment with your doctor or pharmacist.
There is a risk of bleeding or perforation of the stomach and stomach ulcers with the use of Naproxen. This is higher in the elderly, if you have a history of stomach ulcer, or if you smoke. Increased risk with dose of Naproxen. If you think that you might be at risk of these conditions, you should speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
