Does midol medicine cause stomach/liver issues?

Question

Yesterday evening I took midol for cramping. Within 30 minutes I had horrible pain on my upper right side of my stomach... Near my Liver. Can midol cause liver damage? I've been in pain for 24 hours now. Has this happened to anyone and did you have to go to the hospital? 
Thanks for any advice!

Answer

It can be your gall bladder also I had a pain like that and I had my gall bladder removed

Answer

Naproxen (midol) is an NSAID that can upset stomachs.  Like aspirin or ibuprofen.  Always take with something in your stomach.  You may not tolerate NSAIDS because of having IBS.  Do you suffer from ibs symptoms????

Answer

Thanks everyone for the advice. I'll go to the doctor in the morning if it isn't any better. I've taken midol before and it's never happened. So I'm hoping I just didn't have enough to eat and that upset my stomach. Thanks again.

Answer

The Midol I take is just Naproxen (Aleve) and if taken I excess it can cause ulcers but that is only if you abuse it. Did you take it on an empty stomach? If I don't eat with it I get a nasty belly ache.

Answer

I always take midol cuz I find it works better (don't know why) but I've never experienced that before. I'd maybe go to the walk in clinic and get checked out.
