A member asked:
Does meloxicam work right away or does it take a few days or more?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Usually when taken: This is a type of pill for inflammation that is intended to be easier on the stomach and is effective when taken. All the best.

Depends: Depends on what you are taking it for and severity of the inflammatory problem. Sometimes its effects are apparent within hours. Discuss with your physician to determine if a change in approach is warranted. Feel better!
