Frag-Einen

Ask a doctor on the topic of Medications

Naproxen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis, menstrual cramps, and gout.

When is Naproxen completely eliminated from the body? Is it as anticoagulant as Aspirin?

Dr. med. Frauke Gehring

Hello,

Naproxen is not as anticoagulant as Aspirin, but still somewhat. It has a very long half-life of 12 to 15 hours. After that time, only half of the substance has disappeared from the blood, after 5 to 8 days the entire substance.

Sincerely, Dr. Höllering
