A member asked:
I have just started taking mobic (meloxicam) 15 mg once a day, but also need something else to help pain etc at end of day, can i have nurofen and panadol still?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can, but : Mobic (meloxicam) and nurofen (ibuprofen) are the same class of medications. Mild pain responds to aspirin, acetaminophen, or an NSAID alone. Adding a low dose of a weak opioid to the nonopioid medication can usually relieve more moderate pain. Rec. See your treating physician for meds adjustment. Do not self medicate.
