Does Rash Occur Due To Taking Meloxicam?

I have a rash, which I originally thought was jock itch. I have been treating it with topical ointment for several weeks now. The ointment seems to help a little, but is not solving the problem. Could this rash be a result of the Meloxicam that I am taking?

Hello,

The rash could be a side effect of meloxicam. You can discontinue it for some time and see if the rash is improving. If it doesn’t improve consult a doctor and get it evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
