Naproxen is a lovely drug- I find it works better than the other NSAID's- for me, but drug efficacy and side effects tend to be highly individual. I have never taken a longer course than about 2 weeks and that after a BIG smash. It is available over the counter in various dosages in South Africa, Spain and the US. Not available over the counter AFAIK in the UK. The enterically (sp???) coated one is better if you are susceptible to stomach type problems with NSAID's.
