Dry Cough, Nausea, Hot And Cold Spells After Taking Naproxen For Pain In Back While Breathing And Giddiness. Side Effects?

Yesterday I had to come home from work early as I felt very faint, had a headache and a slight pain in my back (only right hand side) when I breathed in and out, belched or sort of hiccuped. I went to the doctor and they said they couldn't hear anything in the lungs so just gave me anti-inflamatories (naproxen). I've now been taking these since yesterday afternoon and have developed a dry cough and nauseas feeling (not sure if it's side affects of tablets?) - although the pain has been relieved. Also feeling lethargic, and having hot and cold spells.

Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I have gone through your available history.

Naprosyn does not have side effects as like you have.
Actually you have some viral infection and because of it, you have all the symptoms.

you should consult your doctor. Doctor may advise you to go for some blood tests like total leucocyte count. Doctor may give you symptomatic treatment in the form if antihistaminics and analgesics.

Thanks.
