I worked out extremely and now i can't walk or feel my thighs or butt because of the pain. So I took 2 pills. It said I was only suppose to take 1 but i'm in PAIN DAMMIT. Did i overdose? I'm 5'11 and 235 pounds.

you can take 1500mg/day for 6 months, but you should use the lowest effective dose

No, My mom had taken as many as 22 Oxycoten in 14 hours and she still alive

you will be fine just try and take what it says on the label next time but you will be fine just get some rest

It's definately more than recommended but you should be fine. Might upset your stomach a bit if anything at all.

Just chill. You'll be fine.

The maximum dose of Naproxen is 1375 mg per day. Taking an amount beyond that would cause an overdose. Naproxen comes in different types and each type works differently in term of how quick you gain relief from pain. Naproxen sodium has a peak plasma level of 1 to 2 hours, Naproxen base takes 2 to 4 hours and Naproxen (EC) takes 4 to 6 hours due to the enteric coating that delays absorption. The higher the plasma peak level, the longer its onset of action. If what you think you're experiencing is acute pain, take the Naproxen sodium type.
