Mobic 7.5mg Tablet

Mobic 7.5mg Tablet contains meloxicam, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) from the oxicam group, used to relieve pain, swelling, and stiffness caused by osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory joint or musculoskeletal conditions such as chronic back pain. By easing inflammation at the source, meloxicam helps people regain mobility and comfort in daily activities that are otherwise limited by joint pain.

Because meloxicam can affect the stomach, kidneys, and cardiovascular system, Mobic 7.5mg Tablet is a prescription-only medicine in Malaysia. Customers purchasing through DoctorOnCall are required to complete an online consultation, during which a doctor reviews their medical history and current medications before issuing a prescription, ensuring the tablet is suitable and safely dosed for the individual.

Meloxicam works by preferentially blocking the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme, which is largely responsible for producing the prostaglandins that trigger pain, swelling, and inflammation in joints and soft tissue. By reducing this pathway more than the COX-1 enzyme that protects the stomach lining, meloxicam provides effective anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving action, although some gastrointestinal risk still remains with long-term use.

Take Mobic 7.5mg Tablet exactly as directed by your doctor, typically once a day, swallowed whole with a full glass of water. Taking the tablet with food or milk can help reduce the chance of stomach discomfort, and the dose should not be adjusted or repeated without medical advice.

The usual adult dose is 7.5mg once daily, which your doctor may increase up to a maximum of 15mg per day depending on how your condition responds. Lower doses are generally used for elderly patients or those with reduced kidney function, and the lowest effective dose for the shortest necessary duration is recommended.

Mobic 7.5mg Tablet typically remains stable for up to 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and left unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the packaging and do not use the tablet beyond this date.

Store Mobic 7.5mg Tablet below 30°C in a dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture, ideally in its original packaging. Keep the medicine out of reach and sight of children and pets.
