Gastrointestinal bleeding is a serious one, and it is most common in older women. (Getty Images)

DEAR DR. ROACH: I was having hoarseness while taking ibuprofen. A friend got intestinal bleeding due to taking it. My doctor gave me 7.5 mg of meloxicam daily, but I’m not sure it’s OK long-term. I’m 73 with osteoarthritis and osteopenia. I exercise daily and eat a healthy diet, and I have high blood pressure that is controlled with losartan and amlodipine. -- T.M.H.
