What Causes Dizziness And Itching Throughout The Body After Taking Aleve?

default
Posted on Thu, 14 Apr 2016
Question: Hello! I took 2 aleve pm for the first time ever last night. Slept good so! :) BUT today I feel dizzy, my body is aching, my arms are tingling and my hands and fingers feel like cramping, I have a sore throat and in general I feel not good! I assume its an allergic reaction. How long until the medication will leave my body and what can I do to get it out faster?

Brief Answer:
You should feel better in a couple of days.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

Those symptoms are more likely to be related to aleve ( naproxen ) adverse effects, than any allergic reaction.

Anyway, these symptoms should pass completely in a couple of days.

You should rest and take plenty of fluids in order to speed recovery.

Remember not to use naproxen in the future.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Greetings.
