Meloxicam Information

Updated

I am taking Meloxicam 15 mg for my Carpel Tunnel, but it takes forever to work. Can I double up on the dosage?

Hello, Kim! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain.

The FDA classifies Meloxicam as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, which means that there is some risk of stomach ulceration, bleeding and liver damage, especially with higher doses, thus, it would be best not to raise your dosage, unless your doctor approves.

Is there anything else I can help with?

No,
I thank you for your advice and help. Besides Meloxicam is there any medication that I can use for my Carpel Tunnel?

Can Meloxicam be used for sore muscles? Worked out for the first time in a while and have severe muscle soreness.
