"Had a pain in left knee develop rather quickly. I am 70 and Dr. said was most likely arthritis. Prescribed Naproxyn and it worked very well for that knee. I have a bad right knee also that has been bad for 30 years and is getting worse. I hoped it would too get some relief but it has not. Curious about that. No noticeable side effects."

"I am compelled to review about this medicine , I was suffering from severe joint pain ( knee, ankle, wrist ). I got the treatment from several doctors, in several Hospitals at different place ,I was getting relief but only for few months and after few months I used to same pain. I suffered approximately 10 years from this pain . Finally or you can say luckily I had treatment from one of Doctors from his private clinic in Chennai , and he wrote only this TABLETS along with OCID 20. and now I am 100 % free from pain since last 7 years . I am very grateful to that Doctor and this medicine . One of my acquaintance was suffering from same kinds of pain and I suggested him to take the same tablet and now he is all right. Once again thanks a lot to this tablet and that Doctor"

"I use it for long-term muscle swelling and back discomfort. It works pretty good for the most part, it doesn't fix all the pain, but it definitely makes it more tolerable."

"I had ongoing pain and swelling for a full year after knee surgery to repair three rips in my right knee. It felt like bone rubbing on bone, felt hot to the touch with swelling After going through narcotics and Motrin for swelling, I worked on accepting that I would be dealing with this for a long time as a chronic condition. After my 1st dose of 500 mg of Naprosyn, it was a Godsend. For the 1st time in a year, my knee actually felt normal."
