I stopped my naproxen over night as recommended by my GP as he thought that they were causing/significantly contributing to my headaches... He was spot on!!!

It doesn't seem to be commonly reported, most people can just stop NSAIs.

When I stopped my NSAIDs, it was because I was feeling pretty good. I had no withdrawal symptoms or anything, and have been off them now for 10 months.
