Get Feldene Online

Feldene (piroxicam) is an NSAID approved to treat the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It helps reduce joint pain, swelling, and stiffness.

Piroxicam has a long half-life of approximately 50 hours, allowing it to be taken just once daily. This distinguishes it from shorter-acting NSAIDs like ibuprofen or naproxen, which require multiple daily doses.

The usual adult dose of Feldene is 20 mg taken once daily. Some patients may be started on a divided dose of 10 mg twice daily. Your physician will determine the appropriate dose for your situation.

Common side effects include stomach upset, nausea, heartburn, and indigestion. More serious but less common risks include gastrointestinal bleeding, elevated blood pressure, and kidney or cardiovascular effects. Inform your provider of your full medical history before starting.

Piroxicam is not recommended for people with a history of stomach ulcers or GI bleeding, serious kidney or liver disease, active heart disease, or allergy to aspirin or other NSAIDs. It should be used cautiously in older adults. Your physician will evaluate your history before prescribing.

Piroxicam can interact with blood thinners like warfarin, other NSAIDs, aspirin, certain blood pressure medications (ACE inhibitors and diuretics), and lithium. Share your full medication list with your provider to check for interactions.
