Suggest Alternative Medication To Replace Naproxen

Hello, Thanks for your help online, it makes life easer for people who need medical advice.

My question is, I am taking Naproxen twice a day. Beside it I am taking Pantaloc.

I read that Naproxen had very serious side effect. What other medication can I take for anti inflammation

with less side effect,

Thanks and God Bless.
