User Comments:

For Osteoarthritis “I found that mobic 15mg is the only medication that takes away my pain and it does it within an hour! Caution: I didn’t know it was an NSAID and also took another NSAID – Aleve (naproxen) with it. My entire body was bruised and I couldn’t figure out why at first. I’m lucky I made it through. I only take it as needed when the pain is unbearable.”

Severe neck & back pain (taken for 2 to 5 years) February 28, 2018

For Osteoarthritis “Started taking this medication about two weeks ago. I gained weight and swelling in hand, legs, feet and ankles. Belly swollen too. I am stopping this medication immediately before something more serious happens. This happened before while on this medication.”

For Osteoarthritis “Mobic seemed to work great to reduce my arthritis pain. However, it gave me a headache and my other MD said Prozac can’t be taken with Mobic because both increase the risk of gastric bleeding etc Also, it gave me shortness of breath. I thought it reduced my pain but my doc says arthritis pain comes and goes, so maybe not. Be careful if you also take an antidepressant – many don’t react well with Mobic.”

For Osteoarthritis “Mobic has been great for my arthritis. I’ve had Mobic prescribed by several different doctors over the past 10 years and 1) haven’t had a problem with it, and 2) it’s one of the only medications that helps with my arthritis, which I have in just about every joint but my elbows. Ibuprofen works too but I started retaining fluid and swelling up after taking it off and on for several years. Hope nothing similar happens w Mobic as it’s a godsend.”

For Osteoarthritis “I too am in constant pain mobic worked wonders but stomach wouldn’t tolerate it. My dr gave me 7.5 twice a day instead of 15 amazing results.”
