6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared with rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.
Adults The adverse reactions reported below are specific to the clinical trials with sumatriptan and naproxen sodium tablets 85 mg/500 mg.
See also the full prescribing information for naproxen and sumatriptan products.
Table 1 lists adverse reactions that occurred in 2 placebo-controlled clinical trials (Study 1 and 2) in adult patients who received 1 dose of study drug.
Only adverse reactions that occurred at a frequency of 2% or more in any group treated with sumatriptan and naproxen sodium tablets 85 mg/500 mg and that occurred at a frequency greater than the placebo group are included in Table
