MODERATE

Interaction Found

Taking meloxicam and naproxen together increases your risk of bleeding. Both are pain medicines that can thin your blood and make it harder to stop bleeding if you get injured.

What to do: Talk to your doctor before taking these medicines together. Tell your doctor right away if you notice unusual bruising, blood in urine or stool, or bleeding that won't stop. Do not stop taking either medicine without talking to your doctor first.
