A member asked:
Is celebrex (celecoxib) stronger than meloxicam?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Highly variable: Different people respond to various nsaids (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) differently - you can't predict which will be better for you. You have to try them both (at least in my experience).
