Effectiveness
How Ec-Naprosyn Affects PatientsNaproxen is a type of non-selective NSAID that can be used to reduce pain, inflammation, and fever. It works by blocking an enzyme called cyclo-oxygenase, which helps to reduce the production of substances that cause inflammation.
While naproxen can be effective, it can also have negative effects on the patient. For example, it can lead to an increase in blood pressure, although this increase is typically less than that seen with ibuprofen. Taking naproxen may also increase the risk of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, especially if taken with other medications such as corticoster
How Ec-Naprosyn works in the bodyNaproxen works to relieve pain, reduce fever and decrease inflammation. It does this by blocking two enzymes, COX-1 and COX-2. The COX-1 enzyme is normally found in healthy tissues like the stomach lining, whereas COX-2 is triggered when the body is in pain. By blocking both enzymes, naproxen is able to reduce pain and inflammation without causing unwanted side effects like stomach upset or kidney damage.

Ec-Naprosyn Toxicity & Overdose RiskNaproxen is sold over-the-counter, which makes it easier for people to take too much of it. The most common symptoms of naproxen overdose are drowsiness, fatigue, stomach ache, nausea, and vomiting. There is no cure for naproxen overdose, but the symptoms should go away with supportive care. Pregnant women should not take naproxen after the 30th week of pregnancy, as it increases the risk of premature closure of the fetal ductus arteriosus.
