Meloxicam 15 Mg Question
UpdatedI am taking this for extreme pain in my shoulder & arm. How long does it take for this to take affect? Will I have to keep taking it to be able to work? My right arm is still not as good as my left arm. I've only taken one 15mg pill however.

Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so while it can ease pain and swelling, it might not relieve all of it, when you're suffering from severe pain. It is not going to act like and be as effective as a narcotic analgesic.
And yes, all medications only last for a certain period of time in your body, so you should follow your doctor's instructions for its use.
Its side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation.
Is there anything else I can help with?
