I did want to comment that my surgeon's nurse told me that Aleve (Naproxen) was not considered safe as it is in the same class of drugs as Advil. I was taking some prescription strength Naproxen just prior to my surgery (prescribed for back pain after a car accident on Feb. 2, my surgery was March 13). At my pre-op appointment I was told to stop taking it immediately and not to take it after the surgery -- Tylenol only for pain she said.
