Do you think they stopped giving it for a reason and therefore probably wise to take the Dr's advice?

[roopower]

My doctor gave me Naproxen, if my memory serves me right, for back pain. He wouldn't give me any more, he said they could have nasty side effects if taken long term.

^ My doc said exactly the same to me and took me off them in favour of co-codamol.

[jennyjoan]

Here I am - that's what she gave me too - sure you can buy them for 19pence in Lidl

You can buy weaker ones over the counter jj, but the stronger ones are only prescribed by the doctor.
