I added the trade name 'Naprogesic'. Naprogesic is a Naproxen Sodium variant sold in Australia. Not 100% sure if the trade name should be on that list, ob I don't have access to the others to rtfm. Thoughts? 220.240.227.91 09:11, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Prescription

Could someone explain why this drug is sold as a prescription drug? As far as I can see it would have no potential for abuse..? --Javsav 10:27, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Prescription drugs may be regulated for several reasons. Not just abuse, but safety and the seriousness of the illness they treat. I don't know specifically about Naproxen, but I can make an educated guess that it is/was a safety concern, maybe its effect on the gastrointestinal system or the possibility o cunt f interaction with other NSAIDs, which are popular over-the-counter drugs. 129.15.84.133 23:57, 31 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All I need is someone to put it into the page with a brief summary of the photo.

It's not that I do not know how, its just that I'm not sure how to resize it for practicality.'

It's under
