| 4 | Muscle Spasm | This does wonders for my back and does not make me feel cloudy like pain meds do. This is the second time I have taken Mobic in 7 years. Both times first few days I cant sleep and feel mildly depressed but that stops around 5 days in. I will continue to take tablets for another four days before halving my dose until no longer required. ALWAYS TAKE WITH FOOD! | F | 25 | 7 days 15mg per d | 2/5/2017 | 1 | Doctor diagnosed inflammation | Experiencing edema in both hand, fingers and wrists which is very painful. Also some ankle swelling. Small amount of skin peeling off on back of hands. | Doctor diagnosed inflammation from cubital tunnel post op 2 months.There were no signs of such as far as I was concerned. I know my body better than a specialist. I did have excrutiating nerve pain (prescribed gabapentin) but I did not think there was inflammation. Nerves will take 6 to 12 months to heal so although extremely painful at times, I believe this was my only problem. Stopped as off today taking meloxicam and hoping the swelling goes down quickly. Do not need drug induced pain! | F | 62 | 5 days 7.5 | 1/31/2017 | 1 | Joint pain | Numbness in fingers and extreme peeling of skin on fingers. | The first week my fingers felt numb and less sensitive, the second week several layers of skin on my fingers started peeling off. Have stopped taking it for a week now, but my fingers have yet to recover. Some pain relief for my unrelated back pain, a little for my joint pain. Not worth it though. | F | 35 | 2 weeks 7.5mg | 1/29/2017 | 1 | Osteoarthritis | Woke up with swollen eyes constipation much stomach pain not enough relief | You can't just take this garbage alone as this doesn't take all the pain away and you suffer too long causing you to not move and then you freeze up and are sore because you can't move your joints due to pain.not worth the risk of hear attack one of many side effects. | F | 51 | 3 days | 12/24/2016 | 4 | Ra | Took at bedtime slept great but gave me an ulcer. | I slept great, no other side effects but I only took it at bedtime | F | 50 | 1 months 15 | 11/26/2016 | 2 | Back pain (Scoliosis) chemo | Tingling in my fingers, arms, and face.

Then just spent 2 days in a row in the ER with severe hives, shortness of breath, and had severe allergic reaction.

DO NOT LET FRIENDS OR LOVED ONES TAKE THIS MEDICATION. My doctor's assistant told me it was imperative to take this medication same time every day. I was compliant but unaware of the LONG half-life of MOBIC (Meloxicam) and the implications thereof. Due to the 20 hour half life, at 15mg per day by day 3 my body was already in a 'toxic' state. I experienced moderate nausea, lethargy, dizziness, vertigo, complete loss of appetite, stomach pain, diarrhea and generalized feeling "unwell.". Due to the knee pain I continued taking 15 mg. On day 14 I wound up in the Emergency Room with severe dizziness/vertigo, violent vomiting, inability to stand/wallk/move, rapid pulse, severe shaking and chills. My LIVER enzymes went through the roof and increased 10 fold. Afterward I went on-line and discovered how dangerous this medication was. It barely took the edge off the knee pain and wound up landing me in the ER. I was lucky, this medication was on its way to | DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION! | F | 51 | 14 days 15MG 1X day | 8/14/2016 | 2 | Inflammation | Swelling of hands and legs. | Did not do anything to relieve pain or decrease inflammation. | F | 36 | 2 days 15 mg | 8/13/2016 | 5 | Seronegative Spondyloarthropathy | Perhaps a slight, dull headache. Could also be from the weather changes. | Five years of progressive, constant hand/wrist stiffness and pain, with flares of excruciating and debilitating episodes are finally GONE! And with something as simple as a beefed-up NSAID. I feel like I've been given my life back. :) | F | 34 | 3 days 15mg QD | 8/1/2016 | 2 | Joint Pain | After 2nd day of taking Mobic, I started itching really bad. | F | 50 | 2 days 7.5 1X day | 6/22/2016 | 1 | Rotator Cuff | Felt no difference, pain still the same, minor chest pains, then irregular heart beat, HALF life....way too long,only 10 more hours, too nervous to take anything with this! going to be a long night | I dont think this is a safe drug | F | 63 | 1 days 15 mg 1X day | 6/10/2016 |
