Global Patient Feedback for Mobic (Meloxicam)
Please see our forum guidelines.
Meloxicam is doing nothing for my arthritis pain and my insurance company will not give authorization for the other one my doctor wants to put me on. I was taking Arthrotec but after my back surgery I am unable to take any type of that antiinflammitory.

I started taking this when my knees became so arthritic I could barely walk this was a new drug and it changed my life. My Mother also takes this and her brother talked to his doctor and started the same medication. All of us have had great results. Taking one pill a day instead of taking several otc drugs is great.

I take this for arthritis and so far it is working. There are some days where my elbows really hurt. But as along as I take it faithfully everyday it has done its job. I have a very senious job with a lot of lifting. I am 59 and female.
