Indomethacin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) having properties of antipyretic and analgesic effects. A great number of pharmacological studies have proved that Indomethacin has strong anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties. Unlike the corticosteroids, the effect of Indomethacin is not related to the pituitary gland or the adrenals.
It may interact with anticoagulants, lithium, diuretics, Beta-blockers, diflunisal, aspirin, probenecid and sulfonylureas.
Headache, usually in the morning and mild vertigo may occur during the early weeks of therapy. These symptoms are transient and usually disappear with continued use or by reduction of the dose. Gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, epigastric and abdominal pain are often due to large doses of the drug and disappear when the dose is reduced.
