I read the dosage info on this site and it says no more then 15 mg in one day. Should I continue with this med as my doctor prescribed? I have been taking 2pills 2x a day since sept 4 my back started hurting 2 days ago. I haven't taken any pills today or last night. I am 64 years old
My doctor prescribed Meloxicam 15 mg tablet 2x a day?

I would check with your Doctor taking 2 every day, most of the time its one a day, all med's have side effects.

Thank you SHEsevEN4. I did end up going back to the doctor and he did lower it to 1 pill 15 mg 1x a day.
