Dg Health Naproxen Sodium PM is a medication used to help relieve occasional sleeplessness that comes with minor aches and pains, making it easier for you to fall asleep and stay asleep. It works by reducing inflammation and pain in the body, which can help you relax. For adults and children aged 12 and over, it is taken as 2 caplets at bedtime, and you should not take more than 2 caplets in a 24-hour period. A key warning to keep in mind is that this medication can increase the risk of stomach bleeding, especially if you are over 60, have had stomach ulcers, or take blood thinners. Additionally, if you are taking aspirin for heart issues, be cautious, as naproxen may reduce the benefits of aspirin.
