Symptoms: Significant overdosage of naproxen may be characterized by drowsiness, heartburn, indigestion, nausea or vomiting. No evidence of toxicity or late sequelae have been reported 5-15 months after ingestion, for 3-7 days, of doses up to 3.3 g/day. One patient ingested a single dose equivalent to 27.5 g of naproxen sodium and experienced mild nausea and indigestion. It is not known what dose of the drug would be life-threatening.
Treatment: Should a patient ingest a large quantity of Flanax/Flanax Forte accidentally or purposely, the stomach may be emptied and usual supportive measures employed. Animal studies indicate that the prompt administration of activated charcoal in adequate amounts would tend to reduce markedly the absorption of the drug.
