I had to have emergency treatment for an alergic reaction and I'm trying
to determine if it was caused from taking Naprosen.  I'd taken Naprosen
frequently about two years ago without problems.  I'm now taking Zoloft
(200mg in the morning) and I took Naprosen at 9 p.m.  I developed an itchy
rash about half hour after taking Naprosen.  Within 15 minutes after
developing the rash, I became hot, sweaty, could hardly breathe, weak and
blacked out.  My husband took me to the emergency room (5 minutes away)
and doctors shot adrenalean and benedryl.  My BP was 80/40 and I had
severe stomache cramps and felt like my body was on fire.  It took about
one hour after getting the shot and getting fluids through an IV before my
cramps subsided and was able to breathe normally.  Anyone had similar
reaction or know if there is an interaction from Naprosen taken with
Zoloft?  My doctor never mentioned it.  I'm following up with him today.
