Naproxen Sodium popper
Ok, I take 6 to 12 Naproxen Sodium (220mg) caps. (bitten in half) a day. My question is : Is that safe and what is the max dose I should take.
My knees are pretty much shot, bone on bone and i've had 6Synvisc injections in my right knee(which aren't helping) and 3 in my left. Gearing up for another 3 in the left and a cortisone shot in my right knee near Thanksgiving.
Feedback is welcome.

The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
Naproxen is a "pouch burner." A year before my RNY I developed 2 ulcers from long term use of Naproxen. When I was preparing for surgery I was told NEVER to take Naproxen, aspirin, ibuprofen or any NSAIDS for the rest of my life. I have arthritis in my knees and hands, but I will suffer with pain from that rather than take meds that will destroy my pouch.
You need to get off of the Naproxen. Know it won't be easy. But you don't need a damaged pouch on top of everything else.
