Not only has this helped with the gout but also symptoms associated with plantar fasciitis.

worked well

Like Naproxon for me this druf really does not provide much releif during an acute attack not does it shorten the duration of the attack. There are not many drugs that have I suufer side effects from but more than 1 pill in 24hurs shreds my stomach everytime with this drug.
Prednisone is the only medication I have taken that very quickly alleviates the attack and almost clears it up in amtter of a few hours. This drug does not.

After the first time I took it I got diarrhea, but that was a normal side effect. Now I take it every time I have a gout attack with Prednisone. I take it overnight and I am gout free the next morning.

Put me to sleep About 1/2 hour after taking 25mg of this I became so tired I couldn’t stay awake. Tried it again and the same thing happened. Lasted for many hours. Also no pain relief as far as I could tell. Though I guess I wouldn’t have known….. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Indomethacin When I was first diagnosed in the fall of 1997 I was taking 50 mg capsules three times a day. in 2003 my blood work started to show it was affecting my kidney. I was slowly weaned down to two 25 mg capsules per day.
I also take a 150 mg tablet of Ratio-Ranitidine with each capsule; I find this aleviates the heartburn and acid reflux I was getting.

Indocin It didn’t work for my OA.

Indomethacin Suppositories 100mg They work, but dissolve easily which makes them difficult to use. Cerebral side effects are not too unpleasant. Constipation or diarrhoea can occasionally be dire.
Please note: I was tried on tablets. Cessation of peristalsis meant they had no chance of working. I use the suppositories as required. I’m not supposed to take more than one a day and I’m glad to say I have only twice needed to disregard that stiulation.

Seems to work well, some nausea, need to limit use works well for me, need to limit use to avoid stomach issues.
Imitrex and O2 together also work well.

Indocin (indomethacin) for Gout, Acute: Gives good relief but gives stomach pains side effect and paranoia side effect if taken more than 3 days

This damaged my stomach permanently After a car accident in 2000, I was adverse to taking Narcotics, so the doctor gave me this stuff and it was good, very good at relieving pain. It helped so much I called the doctor to thank him. A few weeks into using it, I started getting sharp pains under the right side of my rib cage and I thought I had a gall bladder problem. It had me doubling over at points. I went to a gastroenterologist and was scoped, and I discovered that I had one serious case of gastritis (I can only imagine how terrible an actual ulcer is). Now I’m sorry I ever took the stuff because to this day I can’t take any NSAID except a Cox-2 inhibitor like Vioxx or Bextra (which are dangerous and I’m stopping them too, due to cardiovascular side effects now being reported) without having stomach pains within a few days of starting – which has put me in a difficult situation as my back is a near constant issue.

Indomethacin I tried this to rule out Paroxysmal Hemicrania owing to the number of hits I was having a day. I took it in conjunction with a strong antacid as it can be very harsh on your stomach. Whilst I believe it is up to 80% efective for PH and some CH sufferer’s have had success with it.. I wasn’t one of them. I do believe though that it was worth a trial.

Indocin I have been taking Indomethacin for 2 1/2 years now and I am still suffering from the side effects. Those are my biggest problem with the medicine. It has been very helpful though with relieving headaches. I went from all day, every day headaches, to rarely getting one.

Indomethacin Took up to 75 mg 4 times per day along with an antacid to minimize damage to my stomach. It did nothing for the cluster attacks themselves, but did break a constant “shadow” I had had for months. I think indomethacin should be one of the first meds prescribed in the diagnostic phase to help rule out Paroxysmal Hemicranias (PH) (it is almost 100% effective against PH) and confirm clusters where the effectiveness drops very low.

Nausea Fairly effective for joint pain but the nausea got to me.

Indomethacin I was only on this drug for a week or so as it made me very nauseated. I just couldn’t tolerate it.
