I have quite a bit of meloxicam left over which I haven't used in a few weeks, and I've been keeping it in the fridge. Is it safe to freeze and keep to have in case need arises? I can't find anything with a normal search. Or should I just pitch it?

Call your avian vet and ask.

It would probably be best to toss it once it expires (if not before then). The act of freezing it may change the medicine or make it ineffective.... or who knows what else.
