"The best working medicine for my gout. Pain reduced 95% within the first hour. I've tried steroid packs and other medicines, but this works and works fast. No side effects for me, but I follow directions and usually have some food in my stomach before taking."

"Indocin or indomethacin, in my opinion, is very effective in relieving gout symptoms. Taking 25 mg at my first opportunity (the point where I convince myself that I did nothing to stub my toe and it is a gout attack) quickly reduces the pain. I have not experienced the stomach pains or paranoia that the previous post talks about. I always take this medicine with food and drink as directed by my physician."

"Good results for gout within a day or so of treatment. Relieved pain very rapidly, but a bit slower dealing with the swelling."

"After 3 days of initial Prednisone 20 mg, the 1st day of Indocin, I went from 8-2 on the pain scale! I was so grateful! And NO side effects!"

"Naproxen and ibuprofen helped, but didn't stop my gout attack. Indocin made the attack go away in a day!"

"This medicine took the pain away very quickly, but then I had ringing in my ear, which was very annoying. I stopped taking it because I could not take this side effect."

"This Indocin stripped the lining in my stomach and ended up in the hospital for 10 days. I guess not for everyone."
