I stopped my Naprosyn Sunday, after taking 4 tablets daily for the past 2 years. The joint symptoms are very mild; but yesterday I started with a headache -- could that be related to stopping the naprosyn ???

Hi There,
Yes it certainly could. You might be better to cut down slowly rather than stop altogether.
Your surgery could advise you if it persists.
Good luck

thanks -- headache better

Am now 1 week off of the NSAID and the headache was quite annoying, like a hangover feeling, the last 2 days; today almost gone. I would have tapered off gradually, but have some protein and blood in urine and need a 24 hour urine test; want to do the urine test off of NSAID's for 2 weeks just in case the NSAID might be causing the renal issues.
