Can I take Aquipta and Naproxen together?

Por que isso acontece

Aquipta and naproxen are processed by different pathways in the body. Aquipta is primarily broken down by liver enzymes (specifically CYP3A4), while naproxen is processed through different liver enzymes and cleared by the kidneys. They do not interfere with each other's absorption or effectiveness.

You can take these medicines together as prescribed. Aquipta is typically used daily to prevent migraines, while naproxen is often used as a 'rescue' treatment to relieve pain during an attack. Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist.

Asthma or aspirin sensitivity

Do not take naproxen if you have asthma or have ever had an allergic reaction to aspirin or other NSAIDs, as it can trigger a life-threatening breathing emergency (bronchospasm).

Stomach ulcers or bleeding

Naproxen significantly increases the risk of stomach ulcers and internal bleeding. Avoid it if you have a history of stomach issues, and stop taking it immediately if you notice black, tarry stools or vomit blood.

Severe kidney or liver disease

Aquipta is not recommended if you have severe liver disease or end-stage kidney disease, as your body may not be able to process the medicine safely.

Álcool

Drinking alcohol while taking naproxen can increase the risk of stomach irritation and serious side effects like stomach ulcers or bleeding. It is best to limit or avoid alcohol while taking this medicine.

Alimentação (Geral)

You should take naproxen with or just after food. This helps to protect your stomach lining and reduces the risk of indigestion or stomach pain.
