Is meloxacam 15 mg stronger than naproxen sodium 550mg? Using for severe back muscle pain. ## It's hard to say, because they are both very effective NSAIDs. Learn more Naproxen details here. Learn more Meloxicam details here. It usually depends on the person and how well one works for them. Which one has your doctor advised you to take? ## Naproxen...but it bothers my stomach after a few days. Thanks for the reply ## I know I'm a day or 900 late and about $1K short, but you can take NAPROSYN-EC. Just like ECOTRIN and some other quality EC generics, this has an effective "time coating". I've only heard about it in passing and a few female Pts asked me for "an emergency script." I have a mother and a sister. I ask a question or write a note or do and then E-Scr...

Ive been diagnosed with costochondritis and have been on naproxen for it for the last week. I dont have any appetite. I would like to know if naproxen is making me less hungry and giving me slight chest pains and should I stop taking them. Im also very tired alot of the time. ## Hello, Chris! How are you? I'm sorry about the way you're feeling. The Costochondritis can cause chest pain, that's usually one of it's symptoms.

Have you tried making sure to take it with a small snack and not on an empty stomach?

My daughter did not finish the prescription as it seemed to have an adverse effect on her, so we have a few tablets left. How do I safely dispose of them? ## You can take them to a pharmacy and they will dispose of them for you. Alternatively, the FDA disposal instructions advise you to mix them with some undesirable substance, such as used coffee grounds, or used cat litter, place the whole mess into a sealed container and then dispose of it in your trash.
