Uses
Muvera (Meloxicam) works by relieving pain and reducing the swelling and stiffness of the joints that can occur in patients affected by arthritis. The active ingredient in these tablets belongs to a group of medications known as NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). It treats pain and other symptoms of arthritis by decreasing the hormones which can cause swelling and other painful symptoms.
