Naproxen Bei Regelschmerzen (Naproxen)

Naproxen works by non‑selectively blocking the cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes. This inhibition reduces the production of prostaglandins, which are mediators of inflammation, pain, and fever, thereby providing analgesic, anti‑inflammatory, and antipyretic effects.

The appropriate dose and treatment duration are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s condition, age, and response to therapy. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not adjust the dose on their own.

The safety of naproxen in pregnancy and lactation has not been conclusively established. It is generally avoided in the third trimester and used only if the potential benefit outweighs the risk. Breastfeeding mothers should consult their physician before use.

Both naproxen and ibuprofen belong to the NSAID class and share similar mechanisms of COX inhibition. Naproxen has a longer half‑life, often allowing twice‑daily dosing, whereas ibuprofen typically requires three‑four times daily. Their safety profiles are comparable, but individual tolerance and specific drug interactions may influence choice.

Store the product at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Keep it away from moisture, direct sunlight, and out of reach of children. Do not use if the packaging is damaged or the tablet appears discolored.

The medication is taken orally with a full glass of water. It can be taken with food or an antacid to reduce possible stomach irritation. Swallow the tablet whole; do not crush, chew, or split unless specifically instructed by a healthcare professional.

Serious risks include gastrointestinal bleeding or ulcer perforation, severe renal impairment, and rare but life‑threatening skin reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience black stools, severe abdominal pain, sudden swelling, or rash.

Individuals with a known hypersensitivity to naproxen or other NSAIDs, those with active gastrointestinal ulcers, severe heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, or advanced renal disease should avoid this medication. It is also contraindicated in the third trimester of pregnancy.
