Report any pain or bleeding, or vomiting to the doctor.
Many use it okay, though, but if you have borderline ulcers or chronic gastritis there may be issues.

And it will deplete folic acid...so you need to ask your doctor about what dose you should take with it.

Antirheumatic treatment is usually a certain number of tablets once a week only to avoid GI upsets.
The doctor called today and suggested I try Mobic. What do you think about this NSAID??
