Has anyone taken or  know the scoop on the medicine NAPROXCINE ?

I've never taken it, but I know it is a component used in prescription drugs for relieving pain. It is commonly referred to as Anaprox or Naproxan, and although it is supposed to be an effective method of pain relief, the person taking it runs the risk of internal bleeding in their stomach (this is a rare side affect that only occurs when it is taken in excess, or without food).

It is the only medication of its kind that quickly brought depression/anxiety under control (for me and other members of my large extended family), perhaps because it impacts both Serotonin and Norepinephrine levels.  Slight dryness of mouth and some fatigue were the main side-effects ... minor compared to the alternatives ... this medication has probably saved lives in our family.

I was on Zyprexa also and they gave it to me along with the CELEXA.  The Zyprexa was to help me sleep because I just can't sleep more than a couple hours at a time.  HOWEVER! ZYPREXA has MANY MANY class action law-suits against it and this drug about to be pulled from circulation.  It causes way too many side effects.  I wouldn't take it anymore if I were you, but that's up to you.  Don't do anything without asking your doctor.  I received all kinds of papers in the mail about this nationwide lawsuit and even calls at home advising me to no longer take it.  It basically the first few times I used it, did it's job and knocked me out cold, I was on next to the smallest dose.  Then it got to where it didn't faze me.  I did however find it made me more angry.  Just my own experience with it.  Good Luck.

This is a good question.  I can only tell you from my experience of taking this type drug for so long that for me it is worth it.  \n\nIt works great for me.  There are side effects but for me it's better then going with out it.

Naprosyn is an anti-inflammatory drug. It is used to relieve pain, and also to reduce inflammation and stiffness.

Sorry, never heard of this.  I can think of a similar one but the spelling or pronounciation aren't even close.  If you find out the correct spelling for sure, let me know and if it is a medication, I will be able to help you.

i'm taking it now. i was on two others before this but they did not help me. Lexapro is the easiest on my stomach but i have trouble sleeping with it so i'm taking something else to help me sleep until it kicks in fully. talk to your doctor about it. the web is fine to read but i like talking to real people about it to see how it can affect you.

I myself have not taken it, but a few others that I know that are close to me are taking it currently.  In their opinion, it is working, although it takes a while to kick in for full effectiveness.  Just keep taking it if you've been prescribed it.

Newspaper readers around the U.S. are again being bombarded in early 2006 by ad inserts in their Sunday papers touting "The New Skinny Pill," which closer reading reveals as the supplement Zyladex Plus.\n\nAccording to the ad, which features the misleading photo of what appears to be a prescription drug bottle, this amazing pill "is now available in the United States without a prescription" and will enable you to lose up to 15 pounds a week. The ad claims "clinical studies prove it." \n\nThe ad, however, provides absolutely no information about what is in this pill or how it works, and its manufacturer Medlab has no website where this information can be found. When you phone the number in the ad that you are urged to call 24 hours a day to order the product, and ask what the active ingredient in the pill is, the operator tells you "I actually do not have that information available."\n\nBut when this pill was being pushed several years ago, it was one of the many containing the combination of the amphetamine-like compound Ephedrine (since banned by the U.S. FDA) and caffeine.\n\nFurther research suggests that the active ingredient in the current formulation is bitter orange, a common substitute for ephedrine. Extracts from the peel of bitter orange contain the chemical synephrine, a substance similar to ephedrine, and it may contribute to weight loss by increasing metabolism. \n\nIt is unclear whether bitter orange acts similarly in raising heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure, but if it does, Zyladex Plus could be risky for people with arrhythmias and high blood pressure.\n\nWhile the ad misleadingly seeks to invoke the good name of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration by saying Zyladex Plus has been "approved for release by a FDA REGISTERED laboratory," needless to say the product -- like virtually all supplements -- has NEVER been judged for effectiveness or safety by the FDA

My doctor prescribed it to me. It is dangerous, if you don't have all the proper tests done beforehand. When I went on it, I had to have a stress test, an echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart) a chest x-ray, I wore a holter monitor for 24 hours, and an EKG. Once cleared, I was able to get the meds, was closely monitored by the doctor, and had to go to see him every 2 weeks. You can only be on Adipex for a total of 12 weeks per year. It works, but PLEASE, by all means, don't cause yourself to starve! They are powerful, and make you forget to eat. Eat sensibly!

Naproxen and Elavil are blue pills with 274 imprinted on it.  \nThe FDA can identify drugs for you if you send them a description.  However, if you find a pill and can't identify it, do not ingest it.  You don't know what it is, how old it is, or what kind of reaction you will have.  What happens if you are allergic?  You'll have to go to the ER, they will ask you what you took to best treat you, and you won't know.
