The FDA has approved the first over-the-counter tablet combining acetaminophen and naproxen sodium, and the most useful thing to know about it is a number that has been widely misreported.
Most coverage described the product as a 650 mg acetaminophen and 220 mg naproxen sodium pill. The FDA's own announcement specifies the approved tablet strength as 325 mg of acetaminophen and 110 mg of naproxen sodium. The larger figures describe a full dose, which means two tablets.
