Generally they just recommend taking nsaids with food, and it mostly solves the stomach problems.

9point6@lemmy.world 5 months agoCan you buy naproxen without a prescription over there? I thought you generally needed to pair it with something like omeprazole and the general public can’t be trusted to read instructions

Yes. It’s available over the counter. I’ve never heard of pairing it with omeprazole. What is the reason for that?

NSAIDS (type of painkiller) can cause or exacerbate stomach issues. Omeprazole is an antacid that can counter some of those issues.
