What other drugs will affect

an antidepressant such as citalopram,
escitalopram, fluoxetine (Prozac), fluvoxamine,
paroxetine, sertraline (Zoloft), trazodone, or
vilazodone. Taking any of these medicines with an
NSAID may cause you to bruise or bleed easily.

lithium;
methotrexate;
probenecid;
a blood thinner (warfarin, Coumadin, Jantoven);

How should I take Aleve?
Use Aleve exactly as directed on the label, or as

smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
The smallest effective dose should be used.

What happens if I miss a dose?
Since Aleve is sometimes used only when needed,
you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are on a
schedule, use the missed dose as soon as you
remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time
for your next scheduled dose. Do not use extra
medicine to make up the missed dose.
What happens if I overdose?
Seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison
Help line at 1-800-222-1222.
What should I avoid while taking
Aleve?
Avoid drinking alcohol. It may increase your risk of
stomach bleeding.
Avoid taking aspirin while you are taking Aleve.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist before using any cold,
allergy, or pain medicine. Many medicines available
over the counter contain aspirin or other medicines
similar to naproxen. Taking certain products together
can cause you to get too much of this type of
medication. Check the label to see if a medicine
contains aspirin, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, or naproxen.
Ask your doctor before using an antacid, and use
only the type your doctor recommends. Some
antacids can make it harder for your body to absorb
Aleve.

pains due to arthritis, muscular aches, backache,
menstrual cramps, headache, toothache,and the
common cold. Aleve is also used to temporarily
reduce fever.
Aleve may also be used for purposes not listed in this
