ibuprofen and acetaminophen combo helps?

I can’t say what will work for you, but for my back pain I take Meloxicam 7.5 mg twice a day. In addition, I alternate taking Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen every three hours. So I’m taking Ibuprofen every 6 hours, and I’m taking Acetaminophen every 6 hours, but staggered. I would check with your doctor about this before making changes.

@indyanthony I think the typical dosage of Meloxicam is 15 mg once a day. So, splitting the tablet in half and taking it then 12 hours apart makes a lot of sense.
