I am on Norco (5/325, every 4 to 6 hours) following a total hip replacement. Prior to that, I was on Meloxicam (15 mg once daily) for joint pain (shoulder and elbow). The Meloxicam was discontinued when I went on the Norco, but I am now getting a lot of joint pain (elbow, shoulder, knees, ankles, etc.). Is it OK to go back on the Meloxicam while taking Norco? I still have half my Meloxicam prescription left, so I wouldn t need a new prescription. My email address is: YYYY@YYYY .
