Meloxicam is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is used to relieve pain and reduce inflammation in various conditions, such as arthritis, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. It belongs to a class of medications known as selective COX-2 inhibitors.Meloxicam works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are substances in the body that cause pain, inflammation, and swelling. By reducing the levels of these substances, meloxicam helps to alleviate pain and improve mobility in individuals with inflammatory conditions.
