Naproxen (500mg delayed-release) and Esomeprazole (20mg gastro-resistant) Tablets combines a cardiovascular-safe NSAID with a potent proton pump inhibitor. Naproxen is associated with the lowest cardiovascular thrombotic risk among NSAIDs due to continuous 24-hour platelet COX-1 inhibition; esomeprazole elevates intragastric pH > 4, protecting gastric and duodenal mucosa from NSAID ulceration. Indicated for relief of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis in patients at risk of developing NSAID-associated gastric ulcers.
