Why does mobic need to be taken with food?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Optimal effects: It may also help avoid stomach irritation, but the main reason is to improve effectiveness. The peak drug levels were found to be 22% higher if taken after a high fat breakfast than before. Slowing the passage thru the gut by food allows more to get into your blood for doing its' job. Best!
