Can Roxicam be used with lithium?
No. Roxicam should not be used with lithium. Roxicam leads to an elevation of plasma lithium levels and a reduction in renal lithium clearance. This is because of inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis by the NSAID. Consult and inform your doctor before starting this medication.
