My girlfriend is pregnant, and before she got pregnant the gynocologist gave her some naproxen to take for some pain she was having. Now that she is pregnant and is starting to have back pains, her back seems to be kinda warm, (like putting an hot water bottle on it), Our question is... Can she take these naproxen's while pregnant? She feels she needs to go to a hospital, she hasnt set up a family doctor yet, due to conflict in hours wise. Please any help be much appreciated. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE AND HAVE A NICE DAY. Sincerely; Phillip Shrader && Callie Rhoton
