Scientific Evidence:

Meloxicam, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), exerts its pharmacological effects by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase, thereby reducing prostaglandin synthesis. This action results in anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic effects.

Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of Meloxicam in managing pain and inflammation associated with various arthritic conditions. A study by Smith et al. (2018) showed that Meloxicam injections provided significant pain relief and improved joint function in patients with osteoarthritis compared to placebo.
