5 | hip-knee replacement-sprained back | No side effects | A wonder drug for me. | M | 77 | 14 days 7 1/2 MG 1X day | 2/19/2024 | 1 | Osteoarthritis knee inflammation | Didn't do anything for pain or inflammation | F | 60 | 1 months 1X day | 8/2/2023 | 1 | Osteoarthritis in knee | increased blood pressure ( 25+ over normal), severe depression with thoughts of self harm, feelings of hopelessness and periods of uncontrollable crying. I was so depressed I couldn't even call the doctor out of fear I wouldn't be able to stop crying long enough to talk to him. I didn't want him to think I was a wimp. | F | 69 | 12 days 15mg 1X day | 7/21/2023 | 5 | Osteoarthritis of the hip | 15 mg was too strong..got upset stomach ... 7.5 works very well for my hip and knee pain..while I wait for a hip replacement | 75 | 0 days 7.5 1X day | 6/1/2023 | 1 | Back/nerve injury | My doctor prescribed me this for nerve pain due to an injury. I stopped taking it a couple days ago. I can't stop crying, have been severely depressed, had full on meltdowns multiple times at work and even have had thoughts of killing myself which isn't like me. I'd much rather deal with the pain than feel like this all the time. | F | 34 | 14 days 7.5 mg 1X day | 5/19/2023 | 1 | joint paint in toe | depressed, anxiety, lethargic, moody, lots of crying. I will not take this drug any longer, I finally put 2 & 2 together and figured out it had to be meloxicam. I am not normally feeling this way, and once the drug had worn off, I started feeling like myself again. | F | 61 | 1X day | 12/31/2022 | 1 | RA | Panic Attacks, Heart raceing,. Shortnest of Breath,Rash Blistering, Bloating of Stomach,loose Bowels, just miserable over all will never take again I,d Rather the Pain. Need to take it off Market Wouldn't refer to nobody.. | F | 58 | 1 months 15mgs 1X day | 10/16/2022 | 2 | Severe stenosis spinal nerve c3-c4 | Over a period of several weeks of taking 7.5 mg every day noticed a very combative mood taking shape in me. Meloxicam works great to get rid of inflammation and helps a great deal with pain, but the hysterical, panicked combativeness made life awful. | Have taken this med on and off for at least the past ten years but each time rediscover that I can't tolerate it for long. It does a fantastic job of getting rid of inflammation of spinal nerves of neck and back, and does get rid of pain that way. But if I take it every day at 7.5 mg/day after about two weeks I become tearful, combative, angry and plain nasty. Part of the problem is that it has a long half life of 19 hours in young people, so for old coots the half life is probably about a day. (It builds up to about 15 mg in your bloodstream in five days if you take 7.5 mg each day.) On this most recent go round, I started taking it five months ago for injury to spinal nerve root from severe stenosis at C3-C4. After two weeks started to space out doses, and taking 3.75 mg, half a tablet, once every two or three days. The side effects gradually didn't care how spaced out I took it. Took a break three days ago, then took 7.5 mg yesterday am. By nightfall, was short of breath, puffy-faced, irritable, and unbelievably angry. Picked a terrible fight with my husband. Then had panic all night. I believe I am about to have an anaphylactic reaction if I take it again. It's a real shame because this stuff is the most effective anti-inflammatory I've ever taken. And they all have similar, though milder, side effects. Be aware this stuff is a loaded gun. Handle with care. | F | 68 | 5 months 7.5 mg 4X W | 8/23/2022 | 1 | Post knee surgery | Severe stomach pain radiating to back. Slightly less severe 10 days after ceasing. | F | 74 | 10 days 15mg 1X day | 7/16/2022 | 5 | Taking mobic for hip and joint pain | Lightheaded at times when I first got on the medication then after being on it a while it went away and works very well on my arthritis pain and inflammation | Very very satisfied with this medication | F | 40 | 2 years 30mg 1X M | 7/9/2022 | 2 | hip pain, pre mri | low mood, severe stiff neck, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, significantly reduced urination | it DID help my hip pain, however, not worth it. i am 110lbs i feel i should've had a much lower dose | F | 22 | 5 days 15mg 1X day | 5/28/2022 | 2 | Inflammation | I started experiencing very vivid dreams that i would wake up in the middle of the night from. Next day my moods would flip from angry or agitated to severe mood drop to feeling extremely depressed or low self esteem with feelings such as feeling easily overwhelmed and not wanting to interact with my own family members made me not feel right! nope i'm done..i'll deal with my issues without this medication!! | F | 44 | 2 days 15 MG 1X day | 4/9/2022 | 1 | Cervical neck stenosis | Felt like I was going to pass out every time i stood up. Was dizzy non stop. Cried all the time which isn't like me at all. Was cold all the time. I thought the dizziness and feeling faint was from my neck. But I stopped taking the pill and feel 95% better. | F | 41 | 7 days 7.5 2X day | 3/28/2022 | 1 | Neck and shoulder pain | Took this for neck and shoulder inflammation. After three weeks of taking it I started having severe panic attacks, anxiety, horrible head aches, chills and body shakes. I missed out on so much work and was too nervous to drive. Started having nightmares and snapping at my fiancee for no reason. I asked my doctor about these symptoms to see if they were related to this drug but he wasn't convinced. I stopped taking them anyways because I can't live like this. Hopefully this is the answer. | Didn't really a notice a difference in pain level by taking them | F | 33 | 1 months 15 mg 1X day | 3/19/2022 | 1 | Cervical spine and shoulder pain | At first I thought I was crazy for the thoughts and feelings I have had in the past 48 hours, but now I'm discovering here that I'm not. I started taking Meloxicam yesterday. I had the creepiest, darkest, out of body type dream last night that I can't shake today. This morning I took another dose and within an hour I started having anxiety, angry thoughts, a sweaty cold feeling and worse of all imagining drinking a whole bottle of alcohol to kill myself. This is not normal for me at all. I shared this all with my husband so he would know what's going on. I've been crying and feel like things aren't going to be ok. Also I feel confused and unable to follow a conversation before forgetting what was being talked about. This feels scary. I left a message for the doctors office, but I've decided I can't keep taking this drug. | I've not had any pain relief yet after 2 days. | F | 46 | 2 days 15mg 1X day | 3/2/2022 | 1 | Hip and back pain | Depression, low motivation, loss of desire. Racing heart. Feeling like a child separated from my parents in a crowded mall (50 year old flashback). And stomach pain feeling of acid in gut. | Helps the pain, but not worth it. My doctor wanted me to take this even though I wasn't in that much pain. For me, ibuprofen is a better choice. | M | 56 | 5 days 15 MG 1X day | 2/27/2022 | 1 | Elbow pain possible Arthritis | Horrible stomach cramps shivers insomnia constipation back pain I will never take this Again!!! | Don't try it it will make you extremely sick.. I'd rather have the pain oh risk of heart Attack and stroke and kidney Damage. | F | 61 | 0 days 15 6X day | 11/28/2021 | 1 | Elbow pain possible Arthritis | Horrible stomach cramps shivers insomnia constipation back pain I will never take this Again!!! | Don't try it it will make you extremely sick.. I'd rather have the pain oh risk of heart Attack and stroke and kidney Damage. 😱😱😱 | F | 61 | 0 days 15 6X day | 11/28/2021 | 2 | Costochondritis | Mobic/Meloxicam made a difference in my pain and inflammation but anxiety and panic attacks were INTENSE. I had 3 panic attacks in one day, which has NEVER happened to me. Rapid heart beat, feeling faint/out of control, weak, fatigued, and absolutely panicked. It was horrific. Getting off of it, my pain is way worse. At least I no longer feel manic. | F | 28 | 7 days 1X day | 11/7/2021 | 1 | Back pain/potential arthritis | Extreme fatigue, low reaction times (not comfortable driving on this), nightmares, mood swings | It helped with pain somewhat, but the nightmares, low reaction times, and mood symptoms were very unpleasant and I am not comfortable taking any more. I feel that Aleve is just as effective without the weird side effects. | F | 32 | 1 days 7.5 1X day | 10/24/2021 |
MOBIC (MELOXICAM): Meloxicam is used to treat arthritis. It reduces pain, swelling, and stiffness of the joints. Meloxicam is known as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). If you are treating a chronic condition such as arthritis, ask your doctor about non-drug treatments and/or using other medications to treat your pain. See also Warning section.
