Indocin (indomethacin) for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Before taking Indocin aches and pain are felt throughout my joints. When I take it at night I sleep better and the following day I feel the pain is diminished by 60% or better. I stop taking them after 3 to 4 days and start when the pain gets unbearable.

indomethacin for Gout, Acute: Be careful with Indomethacin. It makes me very sick, nauseous, with a feeling of dizziness. It made me pass out 3 times and really worried me. I did an MRI, EKG, blood test to determine the cause of fainting and it turned out to be the indomethacin. The lesser of two evils, gout pain or getting sick to your stomach and fainting.

indomethacin for Cluster Headaches: HELPS WITH PAIN WHEN USED WITH SOME OTHER PAIN MEDICATIONS. SORT OF BOOSTS EFFECTS OF VICODIN OR EVEN HELPS BY ITSELF.

indomethacin for Gout, Acute: I use this medication for gout. I don't think I could survive without it. For me it does not work fast but better late than never, usually 24-36 hours for relief.

Indocin SR (indomethacin) for Ankylosing Spondylitis: It's effective in controlling the pain and inflammation related to ankylosing spondylitis, for about 16 hours and then it's followed by headache and return of pain and inflammation. I've been using it for four days now and will be switching to 2 x day.

indomethacin for Ankylosing Spondylitis: When taken with Valium, you have the perfect combination for relief from Ankylosing Spondylitis. Indocin reduces the swelling and the Valium decreases the spasms and cramping.

indomethacin for Gout, Acute: I've had gout in my foot twice. Last night my KNEE began to hurt. Intense pain when trying to walk. My doctor prescribed Indomethacin 50 mg three times a day. I could walk easily after the first dose of medicine. Good stuff.

indomethacin for Gout, Acute: I have had acute attacks of gout in my right foot. Soo painful a sheet laying on my foot would be intolerable. If taken at the FIRST sign of pain, and not letting it get full blown I can cut the cycle off quickly (1 day). I also have shoulder pain in both shoulders...If I take Indomethacin every 3-4 days or so (1 75 mg capsule) I can eliminate this pain as well. Light headedness for about 8 hours is sometimes a side effect but nothing more.

indomethacin for Gout, Acute: I use to eat spicy foods and very rich foods that cause my gout to act up. I couldn't even walk up the stairs. I woke up one morning and called my doctor. She recommended Indomethacin to me and in less than a week the pain was gone and I could move my knee with no pain. It really works.

Indocin (indomethacin) for Osteoarthritis: I started with 2 x 25 mg capsules a day. After 2 days I really feel my knees are out of pain. I hope the effect will remain after leaving the medicine.
