Can you take meloxicam and cyclobenzaprine together?

Meloxicam and cyclobenzaprine are sometimes prescribed together because they work differently — meloxicam reduces inflammation while cyclobenzaprine relieves muscle spasm. Only take them together if your prescriber has directed you to, since combined use can increase drowsiness and other side effects. Always follow your provider's instructions.

What is the difference between cyclobenzaprine vs meloxicam?

Meloxicam is an NSAID that treats pain and inflammation from arthritis, while cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant used short-term for muscle spasms. They belong to different drug classes and are not interchangeable. Your provider can determine which — or both — is appropriate for your condition.

Do I need a prescription for meloxicam?

Yes. Meloxicam is a prescription-only medication in the United States. A licensed provider must review your health information and issue a valid prescription before it can be dispensed.

How does ordering and shipping work?

After you complete your order, a licensed provider reviews your health information, or we verify your existing prescription. Once approved, your medication is filled and shipped directly from a licensed U.S. pharmacy.

How should I take meloxicam 7.5mg?

The usual adult dose is 7.5 mg once daily, which your provider may increase to a maximum of 15 mg once daily. Take it exactly as prescribed, and use the lowest effective dose for the shortest time needed.

What Is Meloxicam 7.5mg?

Meloxicam is a prescription NSAID that reduces hormones in the body that cause inflammation and pain. It is FDA-approved to treat osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in patients 2 years and older. Because meloxicam and cyclobenzaprine work differently — one on inflammation, the other on muscle spasm — providers sometimes prescribe them together for certain types of musculoskeletal pain. Meloxicam is taken once daily and requires a valid prescription.
