both ibuprofen and naproxen can increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and heart failure, especially with prolonged use or in individuals with pre-existing heart conditions.

Ibuprofen and naproxen can both increase the risk of serious gastrointestinal (GI) problems, including ulcers, bleeding, and perforation of the stomach or intestines, and these problems can occur at any time and without warning.

ibuprofen and naproxen are both very dangerous drugs, ESPECIALLY for anyone with heart or stomach issues ...

In my family, everyone feels that way about Tylenol (it causes pain in the digestive tract, sometimes severe pain lasting for days). It was noticed about 40 years ago and now, we all know it's best to avoid the stuff. Most doctors and nurses seem surprised when they are told, no Tylenol thank you!

I had an issue that caused me to over-use naproxen. I ended up with bloody urine.

I’m leaning away from those types of drugs.
