Naproxenequivalents

naproxen 25 MG/ML Oral Suspension

The same active ingredient is not automatically the same medicine. Strength, route and formulation all differ, and only a pharmacist or prescriber can tell you whether one of these is a substitute in your case. What we can tell you is what each costs.

There is a version sold without a prescription

680 over-the-counter products contain naproxen sodium, at 220 mg/1 against the 125 mg/5mL prescribed here.

The strengths are not the same. Do not assume one box replaces the other.

The same drug costs far less in another form

Naproxen as a suspension costs about 57.1× what the tablet costs per unit of active ingredient ($4.69 against $0.08 per gram).

Whether the form can be changed is a question for a prescriber — for a child, or anyone who cannot swallow a tablet, it often cannot.

Other strengths and forms of the same drug

Not equivalents — a different strength is a different prescription. Listed because the price per unit often differs sharply between them.
