Prevacid NapraPAC Patient, Information, Instructions - Naproxen and Lansoprazole
Prevacid NapraPAC Patient, Information, Instructions - Naproxen and Lansoprazole
PATIENT INFORMATION
Each convenience package of PREVACID® NapraPACTM
(375 or 500) contains sufficient product for seven days of treatment. Each daily
dose consists of one PREVACID 15 mg capsule and two NAPROSYN tablets, either
375 mg or 500 mg. Take the PREVACID capsule and one NAPROSYN tablet in the morning
before eating with a glass of water. Take the second NAPROSYN tablet in the
evening with a glass of water.
NAPROSYN, like other drugs of this class, is not free of side
effects. The side effects of this formulation can cause discomfort and, rarely,
there are more serious side effects, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, which
may result in hospitalization and even fatal outcomes. PREVACID when taken with
naproxen has been shown to reduce the risk of NSAID-associated gastric ulcers
in patients with a history of ulcer.
NSAIDs (Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) are often essential
agents in the management of arthritis and have a major role in the treatment
of pain. Naproxen as NAPROSYN is indicated for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis,
osteoarthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.
Physicians may wish to discuss with their patients the potential
risks (see WARNINGS, PRECAUTIONS
and ADVERSE REACTIONS) and likely
benefits of naproxen treatment, particularly when it is used for less serious
conditions where treatment without NSAIDs may represent an acceptable alternative
to both the patient and physician.
Caution should be exercised by patients whose activities require
alertness if they experience drowsiness, dizziness, vertigo or depression during
therapy with naproxen.
