Naproxen Sodium 220 mg Capsules (Gluten Free) is a potent medication used in the management of various inflammatory conditions such as Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Gout, Ankylosing Spondylitis, and Menstrual Cramps. As a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), Naproxen Sodium operates by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body that trigger inflammation and pain.

The common side effects of Naproxen Sodium may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, headache, dizziness, and drowsiness. If any of these side effects occur, it is advisable to contact your healthcare provider immediately.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
