Mobic (meloxicam) is not the: answer. If it's NSAIDs and you have a history of gastritis, they are not compatible to do together. Wise to call your doctor to switch to something else. We don't have the rest of your past medical /soc /sexual /surgical /supplement histories that would be helpful. Need to make sure you're hydrating fully, not taking caffeinated bev, chocolate, fried foods, processed foods, alcohol, even smoking.
