Description
500 mg Naproxen pill. This drug is known by the trade name Aleve, among others. Naproxen belongs to a class of drugs called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). These drugs are used for the management of mild to moderate pain, fever, and inflammation. They work by reducing the levels of prostaglandins, chemicals that are responsible for pain, fever and inflammation. Naproxen blocks cyclooxygenase, the enzyme that makes prostaglandins, resulting in lower concentrations of prostaglandins. As a consequence, inflammation, pain and fever are reduced.
