Naproxen is a member of a class of drugs called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or NSAIDs. This drug, like others in its class is used to treat pain, inflammation and fever. NSAIDs like naproxen work by reducing postglandin levels in the body. Postglandins are chemicals that cause the fever, discomfort and inflammation. While this drug can be quite effective for this purpose, there is a connection between naproxen and heartburn.
