Question 1

meloxicam stronger than aleve (naproxen)?

Accepted Answer

No: People respond differently to various nsaids. Some will find aleve (naproxen) is more effective and others will find that Meloxicam is better.

Question 2

what's stronger aleve (naproxen) or meloxicam?

Accepted Answer

aleve (naproxen): 4 aleve (naproxen) pills are stronger than 15 mg meloxicam.  7.5 mg Meloxicam is safer than aleve (naproxen).

Question 3

is mobic any stronger than tylenol (acetaminophen) or aleve?

Accepted Answer

Depends on patient: Mobic (meloxicam) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (nsiad).  Aleve (naproxen) is also an nsaid.  Tylenol (acetaminophen) is not an anti-inflammatory medicine.  Mobic lasts longer and in most cases needs to be taken once daily.  Patients react differently to nsaids.  So the efficacy frequently is patient dependent.

Question 4

is meloxicam stronger than naproxen?

Accepted Answer

aleve (naproxen): 4 aleve (naproxen) pills are stronger than 15 mg meloxicam.  7.5 mg Meloxicam is safer than aleve (naproxen).

Question 5

i took one aleve 4hrs ago. can i take my 15mg meloxicam now?

Accepted Answer

Better wait 4 more: hours, the two are NSAIDs and side effects can be an issue if taken too soon. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) can be used in the interim to control pain/fever if you wish, have a good day

Question 6

i took a meloxicam 7.5 at about 9:30 this morning and accidentally  took an aleve at about 7:30 this evening. am i going to be ok?

Accepted Answer

Probably yes.: A single excess dose of an NSAID is unlikely to have any serious consequences. Repeated high frequency or too high dosing can be hard on the kidneys or lining of the stomach, but a one-time doubling up shouldn't have any long term problems.

Question 7

is it bad to take mobic (meloxicam) or aleve if you have acid reflux?

Accepted Answer

Taking NSAIDs: generallyn it is pretty safe to take NSAIDs if you have reflux.  I would take them with food.  If you have known ulcer disease, it is wise to limit the NSAIDs or take them with a protective drug that reinforces the liking of the stomach.  Avoid drinking a lot when you are being treated for ulcer disease.  Good luck and feel better.

Question 8

i took meloxicam 4 hours ago. can i take 2 aleve (naproxen) now?

Accepted Answer

No bad interaction: There are no reported risks but pain that resists OTC efforts might merit an exam. Call your Dr to ask for advice or appointment. Not knowing what's hurting, I can't say much more.

Question 9

i take 1 .15 meloxicam daily can i take 4 aleve (naproxen) 10 hours later for pain?

Accepted Answer

No.: This would be too much especially at your age.  Naproxen is in the same class of meds as meloxicam and the dual dosage could hurt your kidneys.  Could consider using acetaminophen 650 mg if not otherwise contraindicated.

Question 10

i take mobic 15 mg for arthritis. can i take 2 aleve or tylenol (acetaminophen) together. ?

Accepted Answer

NSAIDs: U should not mix Mobic and Aleve as this may cause troubles with kidneys, blood pressure, stomach etc.
On the other hand combination of Tylenol (acetaminophen) and Aleve or Tylenol (acetaminophen) and Mobic is acceptable and some times advisable. 
Hope u feel better.
