You can continue using Naprosyn 250 mg (Naproxen) as prescribed for occasional migraine relief. However, long-term or frequent use may increase the risk of side effects affecting the stomach, kidneys, or heart. Please talk to your doctor about preventive treatments and lifestyle measures that may help you rely less on painkillers.
