FDA approves new over-the-counter pain reliever that combines Tylenol and naproxen
The FDA approved the first over-the-counter medication combining acetaminophen (Tylenol) and naproxen (Aleve) into a single tablet for up to 12 hours of pain relief. The combination aims to provide faster and longer-lasting relief for conditions like headaches, back pain, and menstrual cramps, though it carries risks such as liver damage from acetaminophen and NSAID-related complications.
