Hi, I’ve just been prescribed Naproxen (500mg) to help with shoulder pain whilst I wait for a referral to musculoskeletal dept. Alongside this the GP has given me Lansiprazole (15 mg) to counteract the gastro effects of the Naproxen.
The shoulder pain is stopping me sleeping and impacting on day to day activities (eg I can’t fasten my bra). So I’m happy to have the Naproxen. I feel nervous though about messing with my stomach acid as I don’t want to get or worsen any absorption issues for thyroid meds and vitamin supplements.
Has anyone got any experience of these new meds? Also any advice on how to take them alongside levo (I take through the night) and lio (I take in the morning). Trying to time meds / supplements is getting harder!
Thanks for any comments/ wisdom.
