A member asked:
I take an anti inflammatory (mobic). can this alter my esr levels, and if so how long will it take to get out of my system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes. A few days.: Mobic (meloxicam) may actually reduce your ESR as it reduces inflammation. Mobic (meloxicam) is a once a day drug which generally means it is clear from your system within a matter of days.
