Side Effects for Piroxicam (piroxicam)

Some stomach cramping and diarrhea about the 3rd day taking med and then it goes away.

This med is a wonder drug for my back pain and pain associated with Fybromyalgia. You take this med once per day and it starts working on about day 4 or 5. Once it starts working take it for another week and then stop. Your pain will be gone. I only take it when needed. My stomach could not handle the high mg Ibruprofen and I hate muscle relaxants that make me feel "drugged". This med is great but it does take a few days to start working

Please see the listings under feldene, the original name of this drug. Reactions are serious, sometimes fatal, and not to be taken lightly.

PIROXICAM (PIROXICAM): Piroxicam is used to reduce pain, swelling, and joint stiffness from arthritis. Reducing these symptoms helps you do more of your normal daily activities. This medication is known as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking your body's production of certain natural substances that cause inflammation. If you are treating a chronic condition such as arthritis, ask your doctor about non-drug treatments and/or using other medications to treat your pain. See also Warning section.

I had been on Vivelle-dot for two years but never felt completely back to normal. Yes, it was an improvement vs. no HRT, but even with the highest dosage of the vivelle-dot it seemed like I needed more. We switched to climara (brand name, not generic) and I noticed the patch is much bigger. For me, it has been a miracle patch! All the aches and pains that Vivelle dot reduced but never quite took away, Climara took away! And it gave me so much more energy and restful sleep. On vivelle-dot I was still waking up every hour or so. Even though both the vivelle-dot and the Climara are .1mg, for me at least, the Climara is stronger and I feel so much better! Amazing! Anxiety gone, eliminated hot flashes, skin and hair better. Mouth and nasal passages moister. Brain fog gone. However, I need to replace after 4 full days as I start to feel the low estrogen effects creep in and the headaches start. It doesn't last a full week for me. I wish I had switched to Climara sooner instead of wasting two years on the Vivelle-dot.

I take other meds, but this one I have stuck with over time! It has helped for many years.

I would rather take a chance on my bones deteriorating than keep on taking these pills.

Helped clear up the epstein-barr tongue lesions. As per the actual disease I don't know if it helped or not.

I take Lortabs for old injuries, arthritis and muscle pulls/strains from working out with weights. I'm in good shape/condition for my age.My dosage is 7.5/500's which I take once a day toward the evening. I started out with this dosage but after the first 8 months or so have taken a dose and a half a couple of days out of the week.I take it if I need it or not. My doctor has been OK so far with the scripts and hasn't questioned me about addiction or anything yet. This drug has given me a much better quality of life but I do fear damage to the liver for taking it for so long. Also concerned about addiction but I plan to be taking Lortabs for a long time because there is nothing else that I've taken which helped me.

Slight odd taste, not enough to bother me. Dizzyness during the first couple of days, the first day after I took it I was a complete wreck though.

woke several times during the procedure - gave me more with NO response at all - I was in great pain - never again will I have a colonoscopy without TOTAL sedation!!!

I have just started to use the manual method for my stomach and legs and it has worked much better. The lumps in my legs are much smaller this week. It seems they will disappear in less time than when I used the autoinject. It took over a week for the lumps to go away in my legs with the auto inject

Gained roughly 20 pounds, I rarely experience muscle cramps. At the start my legs twitched.

After using this antibiotic eye drop only a few times after Lasik surgery, my eye turned blood red with pain and swelling. Turns out I was very allergic to this drug. But I am super sensitive to drugs - that is just me. You might benefit from using this drug.
