Available Treatments
We currently offer the following treatment for arthritis-related pain and inflammation:
- Naproxen – a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve joint pain and stiffness.
Additional treatments may be introduced as clinically appropriate.
What Are Arthritis Treatments Used For?
Arthritis treatments are primarily used to relieve pain, stiffness, and inflammation in the joints caused by conditions such as:
- Osteoarthritis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Ankylosing spondylitis
- Gout-related joint pain
Anti-inflammatory medications like Naproxen help reduce swelling and discomfort, making movement easier and helping patients stay active.
When Might Arthritis Treatments Be Needed?
You may benefit from arthritis treatment if you experience:
- Persistent or recurring joint pain
- Stiffness in the morning or after inactivity
- Swollen, tender, or warm joints
- Difficulty with movement or completing daily tasks
- Pain that worsens with weather changes or overuse
Treatments are often used in combination with lifestyle changes, physiotherapy, or other medications prescribed by a healthcare provider.
How to Use Arthritis Treatments
Naproxen should be taken exactly as prescribed. It is typically taken orally in tablet form, either with or after food to minimise stomach irritation.
- Swallow tablets whole with water
- Do not crush or chew
- Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your prescriber
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it’s almost time for the next one. Do not double up to make up for a missed dose.
Common Questions About Arthritis
How long does it take for Naproxen to work?
You may begin to notice relief within a few hours, but anti-inflammatory effects can take a few days to reach full strength.
Can I take Naproxen long-term?
Only under supervision. Long-term use can increase the risk of gastrointestinal issues and should be reviewed regularly by your healthcare provider.
Can I take Naproxen with paracetamol?
Yes, Naproxen can be taken alongside paracetamol if additional pain relief is needed. Avoid taking it with other NSAIDs like ibuprofen.
Is Naproxen suitable for all types of arthritis?
Naproxen is commonly used for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory conditions, but a medical consultation is essential to ensure it’s appropriate.
Dosage and Application for Arthritis Treatments
Naproxen:
- Standard dosage: 250mg to 500mg twice daily
- Maximum daily dose: Should not exceed 1000mg
- Course duration: As prescribed – often used during flare-ups or ongoing inflammation management

Possible Side Effects
