Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. Naxdom500 contains naproxen sodium 500 mg, domperidone 10 mg.

2. Naproxen is a pain relief and domperidone is for vomiting.

3. The recommended dose of naproxen is 1000 mg which is two tablets of 500 mg per day. Taking 20 tablets is over dose and can cause stomach bleeding and gastric irritation. It can cause kidney problem in some patients.

Hope your query is answered.
