So, maybe Meloxicam is not such a good idea. Dang. I felt like the tumor was getting smaller. Or at least the tissue surrounding it. But Duncan was definitely getting constipated. And he had 2 bouts, one severe, with vomiting. After looking Meloxicam up on the WORLD WIDE WEB I discovered a list of things:
1. Meloxicam is not approved for feline use
2. Cats are sensitive to NSAIDS in general
3. Meloxicam is renotoxic - Dunan has chronic kidney failure
So, maybe Meloxicam is not for him. Will any of the NSAIDS family? The steriodal type of anti-inflammatory would not even be a consideration, which leaves us with out a viable option for anti-inflammatory, specifically a COX-1 blocker.
