As with other non-COX-2 selective NSAIDs, naproxen can cause gastrointestinal problems, such as heartburn, constipation, diarrhea, ulcers and stomach bleeding. [23] Naproxen should be taken orally with, or just after food, to decrease the risk of gastrointestinal side effects. [24]
When nonselective COX-1/COX-2 inhibitors (such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen) lower stomach prostaglandin levels, ulcers of the stomach or duodenum and internal bleeding can result. [126] The discovery of COX-2 led to research to the development of selective COX-2 inhibiting drugs that do not cause gastric problems characteristic of older ...
Gastrointestinal bleeding can range from small non-visible amounts, which are only detected by laboratory testing, to massive bleeding where bright red blood is passed and shock develops. Rapid bleeding may cause syncope. [18] The presence of bright red blood in stool, known as hematochezia, typically indicates lower gastrointestinal bleeding.
This form of gastritis can occur in more than 5% of hospitalized patients. [citation needed] Also, alcohol consumption does not cause chronic gastritis. It does, however, erode the mucosal lining of the stomach; low doses of alcohol stimulate hydrochloric acid secretion. High doses of alcohol do not stimulate secretion of acid. [25]

Optic nerve damage could cause or contribute to vision loss (including retinitis pigmentosa). Like priapism, this is an extremely rare side effect that only affects a tiny percentage of Cialis users.
The cause of the cardiovascular problems became, and remains, a subject of intensive research. [29] As of 2012 results have been converging on the hypothesis that the adverse cardiovascular effects are most likely due to inhibition of COX-2 in blood vessels , which leads to a decrease in the production of prostacyclin in them.
