Precautions

Before using Maxna 500 mg, consider the following precautions:

  • Gastrointestinal Conditions: If you have a history of stomach ulcers or bleeding, NSAIDs should be used cautiously and under medical supervision.
  • Heart Disease or Hypertension: Patients with cardiovascular conditions, such as heart disease or high blood pressure, should use NSAIDs cautiously, as they may increase the risk of heart problems.
  • Kidney or Liver Disease: If you have kidney or liver problems, your doctor may need to adjust your dosage or monitor you closely while taking Naproxen.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Naproxen is not recommended during the later stages of pregnancy due to the risk of harm to the fetus, and it should be avoided during breastfeeding unless advised by your doctor.
  • Drug Interactions: Inform your healthcare provider about all other medications you are taking, as Naproxen can interact with other drugs, such as blood thinners (e.g., warfarin), corticosteroids, or other NSAIDs.
