People have looked at the aspirin effect in some of the studies. It adds another variable, so it makes things that much more confusing. There's an additional variable - ultra low dose aspirin vs. regular dose as well.

One thing that does emerge is that specifically ibuprofen plus aspirin is NOT a good idea, for reasons that are unclear.

here's an idea about aleve: i don't believe the results.

consider that the implicated aleve dose is 220 mg. twice/daily. before aleve was sold otc, naprosyn was sold at doses of 250/375/500 twice/daily, with 375 mg. being, i believe, the standard dose. naprosyn was sold from at least 1976 to 1999, when the cox-2 inhibitors came on the market. during that time, many billions of naprosyn were sold.there had to be a lot of people who were taking naprosyn alone. if there truly were a cardio issue with naprosyn, it would likely have shown up a long time ago. so, extremely unlikely that the lower dose product, i.e. aleve, has an issue.
