Nausea, indigestion, or heartburn may occur as meloxicam can irritate your stomach lining, especially without food or with alcohol.
Stomach Upset
Meloxicam may cause dizziness or headaches, especially during the first few doses. Avoid driving or heavy tasks if you feel off.
Dizziness
High Blood Pressure
It can elevate blood pressure by affecting kidney function and fluid retention, especially with long-term use or in older adults.
Some users experience swollen ankles, feet, or hands due to fluid retention—a sign to monitor kidney and heart health closely.
Fluid Retention & Swelling
Rashes
Meloxicam may trigger rashes, itching, or rare but serious skin reactions. Stop use and seek help if symptoms worsen suddenly.
Rare liver problems may cause yellowing of skin or eyes, dark urine, or fatigue. Report these signs to your doctor promptly.
Liver Issues
Long-term or high-dose use may raise heart attack or stroke risk, especially in people with existing heart disease. Use cautiously.
Increased Risk of Heart Attack
Kidney Problems
Reduced kidney function can occur, especially in older adults or those with existing kidney issues. Signs include fatigue and decreased urination.
