Does Meloxicam Help You For Back Pain

Hi. I have chronic lower back pain that prevents me fro walking more than 50 yards at a time. I also have a severely arthritic left ankle that is painful. I will likely get a STAR replacement. I am on blood pressure, diabetes, depression, and anxiety meds. Will 15mg of Meloxicam help me?

What other medications do you take? I am sorry, but I can't really answer your question without more details.

Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, and according to NIH studies, it may be contraindicated with some medical conditions, such as high blood pressure, it may also react with some other medications.

Can you please post back with the names of the others you are currently taking? Thank you!
