Special Precautions

Anaprox is virtually identical to Naprosyn, a popular arthritis medicine, so these two drugs should never be taken together.

The over-the-counter pain reliever Aleve is another guise naproxen may take and should not be mixed with Anaprox.

People who are allergic to aspirin or other anti-inflammatory agents should avoid Anaprox.

Signs of allergy include breathing difficulties, rash, fever, or a sudden drop in blood pressure, and require immediate medical attention.
