Naproxen Tablets are a prescription anti-inflammatory medicine used to relieve period pain, also known as dysmenorrhoea.

Naproxen belongs to a group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, natural substances involved in pain, inflammation and uterine contractions during menstruation.

During a period, increased prostaglandin activity can cause the muscles of the uterus to contract more strongly. These contractions may lead to lower abdominal cramps, lower back pain and discomfort that affects everyday activities.

Naproxen helps relieve these symptoms by reducing prostaglandin production.

At Pharmulous, naproxen is offered through an online prescription consultation. An authorised UK prescriber will assess your symptoms, medical history and current medication before deciding whether treatment is suitable.
