Naprosyn Tablet 500 mg contains Naproxen Sodium, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain, inflammation, and stiffness associated with various musculoskeletal and inflammatory conditions. It provides effective and long-lasting symptom control in both acute and chronic pain disorders.

Naproxen Sodium works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, which are responsible for the synthesis of prostaglandins. Prostaglandins play a key role in causing inflammation, swelling, and pain. By reducing their production, Naprosyn helps improve mobility and reduce discomfort.
