7.5 Dosage Only Lasting 6-7 Hours, Then Pain Returns (Top voted first)
UpdatedI have chronic Osteoporosis pain. the 7.5 I take at 7 am wares off by the afternoon. Should I double the dosage: 7.5 am and 7.5 after 6pm?
Also, is it safe to take clonazepam .5mg with Meloxicam. Thanks much for any suggestions.

The normal starting dose is 7.5mgs, once daily, but it can be increased to 15mgs, in two even doses, so that would mean a second 7.5mg tablet 12 hours later.
Learn more Meloxicam details here.
However, it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that requires a prescription, so you'll have to have any dosage change approved by your doctor. Have you contacted them, yet?
And I didn't find any interactions, or problems listed between the two medications, but you should check with your pharmacist to be certain.
Thank you kindly for the quick reply. I will follow your suggestions. I am seeing my PCP soon to change the presp. to 15 after I use up the 7.5 double dosage. Your site is wonderful!
