Naxen:
Substance: Naproxen
Naxen is an anti-inflammatory not actually a steroid. The reason
it is in this section is because it is a popular drug to be used
to relieve pain and swelling from over training a specific body
part, especially tendonitis or other injuries. The use of an anti-inflammatory,
such as naxen, will speed up recovery time and relieve pain. Naxen
was originally used to treat arthritis with dosages starting around
500mg split up throughout the day and always taken with a meal.
Dosages can be gradually increased until the pain is relieved.
A common dose would be 600mg twice a day. Naxen is available in
tablets, as a topical cream, and as an injectable. The best place
to inject naxen is in the gluteus maximus because it requires
a deep intramuscular injection. Naxen does have some side effects
which include: heartburn, constipation, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness,
fatigue, depression, rashes on your skin, heart attack, muscle
weakness, and fever. Naxen is a little on the high side when it
come to price. For a package of 45x250mg tablets which would last
about 10 days at 600mg/2xday, it is about $12.00. On the black
market this would probably be around $15- $18. There are no other
trade names available. 24x1 gram tablets, 45x250 mg tablets, 45x500
