If it did not bother you last night should be no problem. Review all meds you are taking for interactions at Drugs.com and discuss with Dr if needed.

Most of the information cautioning caffeine and meloxicam comes from individuals writing coffee blogs who have no training in healthcare. The medical literature itself does not suggest that coffee and meloxicam affect one another. Both may upset the stomach, so spacing them out by an hour or two might be reasonable. But there isn’t reason to think they can’t be taken the same day.
