1. Counselling Conundrum: a real question from a patient

2. Concise Conclusion: a straight-forward patient-friendly answer

3. Quick Wrap-up

Clearly, there are nuances that may not be captured in this format. The goal here is to provide you with helpful counselling tips which often draw from multiple sources or those which are not commonly accessed by busy healthcare providers serving the community.


Counselling Conundrum: "Should I take my Vimovo with or without food?"

Concise Conclusion: This is a good question, since naproxen should be taken with food, whereas esomeprazole is best 30 mins before a meal. Given that the esomeprazole will protect against stomach upset, you should take the Vimovo 30 minutes before a meal. This ensures the stomach protection works best.

Quick Wrap-up: This one seems trickier than it is. Thankfully, the monograph very clearly answers this one, so no need to dig through multiple resources. However, this is exactly the type of question that our Counselling Cue Cards answers with a quick glance at our icons, and a very brief explanation!
