Pregnancy interaction:

Naproxen can slow down labor and change the way the baby's heart develops.
If you need pain relief while pregnant, talk to your doctor about safer options like paracetamol.
If your doctor tells you to, you can use Naproxen while nursing. Small amounts of the drug may get into the milk.
