Drug Interactions
El uso de este medicamento con aspirina o warfarina aumenta el riesgo de sufrir problemas estomacales e intestinales graves. Puede hacer que los medicamentos para la presión arterial, como los inhibidores de la ECA y los bloqueadores de los receptores de angiotensina II, funcionen con menos eficacia. También puede reducir la eficacia de los diuréticos como la furosemida y las tiazidas. Este medicamento puede hacer que el metotrexato sea más tóxico y elevar los niveles de litio en la sangre.
Contraindications
No use meloxicam si es alérgico a éste, a la aspirina u otros AINE. Evítelo si tiene problemas hepáticos graves, trastornos hemorrágicos o insuficiencia renal (a menos que esté en diálisis). No use meloxicam rectal si tiene proctitis, hemorroides o sangrado rectal.
Mode of actions
El meloxicam pertenece al grupo de medicamentos del oxicam y funciona como analgésico, antifebril y antiinflamatorio. Actúa bloqueando las enzimas COX-1 y COX-2 en el cuerpo, lo que reduce la producción de sustancias llamadas prostaglandinas que causan inflamación, dolor y fiebre.
