Indometacin

i have gout. i am taking 25mg blue capsule called indanet from Mexico. i feel numbness in my leg and foot, could it be a sympton from this capsule, or a sympton from the gout it self. the dr. had prescribed colchine for my gout, but i got indanet from Mexico. ## Since you have gout and are taking both medications, it is rather difficult to say which one is causing it. However, the Indomethacin is a very potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so it may cause some side effects that could also cause these types of issues. Learn more Indomethacin details here. Have you talked to your doctor about it?

I need to know the side effects and cautions in using this Gel for leg cramps and pain. Are there any medications that should not be used in combination with this drug. Can it be taken in capsule form? ## You really don't absorb a lot from topical preparations, but yes, there are some medications that it can interact with, however, there are far too many to list. Can you please post back with the specific medications you'd like me to check for you? Learn more Betamethasone details here. Learn more Indomethacin details here. Both of them are available in oral formulations, but you could not safely put this topical gel into a capsule and take it. ## In reply to the person with leg cramps.

Sold under the name Ardosons in Mexico. Are there many side effects? Should I take as needed or should I take one or two a day every day as recommended by my Mexican doctor. Are there long term side effects? ## The ingredients are Indomethacin, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory; Betamethasone, which is a steroid class medication and Methocarbamol, which is a muscle relaxant. So, it's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. The doctor is correct, it is usually just taken, as need for pain, up to twice a day. Since it does contain an NSAID, it can cause some side effects, such as headache, nausea and stomach irritation, which could worsen and put you in danger, if you take too much of it.

27 years ago I was in an accident. And now when the weather changes I have a lot of arthritis pain in my my right hand and all of my arm running from my hand to the neck. This pain lasts from 1 to 4 days. Doctor has prescribed this combination of drugs and I'm wondering if it will help? Thanks a lot. Maria ## Have you used this medication in the past? This combination is not available in the U.S. From what I know, it is prescribed in Mexico as a muscle relaxer and anti-inflammatory. It should technically help with the symptoms you are describing. I would suggest working closely with your doctor to ensure that the treatment is working out and that you aren't dealing with any long term side effects.

I have a green and white capsule that has all three ingredients in it. Is this safe to take and for how long? Is it for inflammation? ## One drug is a safe as any other, they all carry risks. As to how long you should take it, you should really consult a doctor, because it depends on the severity of the condition being treated and how well it responds to treatment. Since this does contain the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory Indomethacin, it can cause blood thinning and stomach irritation, which can worsen with long-term usage, so you do need to be careful. The Methocarbamol is a muscle relaxant, which may cause dry mouth, headache and dizziness. The Betamethasone is a type of steroid, so it may cause fluid retention, weight gain and a compromised immune system. Learn more: Are there any ...

Indomethacin

Indometacin, also known as indomethacin, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used as a prescription medication to reduce fever, pain, stiffness, and swelling from inflammation. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, endogenous signaling molecules known to cause these symptoms. It does this by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, an enzyme that catalyzes the production of prostaglandins.[1][2] It was patented in 1961 and approved fo...

25mg green and white capsule rimsa on capsule indometacina metocarbanol betametasona on back of blister pack oral ## What exactly is artridol used for??? ## See google under Artridol pills it gives you ingrediants and uses. ## i need artridol for my artherites. ## The reported ingredient in this, from Chile, is Glucosamine, it is not a prescription drug, but a dietary supplement that it touted to help people with joint problems, such as arthritis. Since it is a supplement, it is not proven to work and actually help anything! ## It is used for treatment of joint pain ## Artridol does NOT contain glucosamine - unless the labs in Chile are cooking up their own special home brew. Artridol gel contains Betamethasone and Indometacine. Details available from Wikipedia. I live in Mexico and tak...

i have pain in my right eye,it has been affecting me for a long time i recently got perscribed neurobion and indometacin,since i started taking them i have seen a lot of improvement. for how long can i use neurobion does it cause vitamin toxicity if used for long term ## Yes, it can if you get too much, so you need to be careful and have your levels checked regularly, while using it. The Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. Taking it for a long period of time risks liver damage, so you need to follow the prescribing instructions on it. Are there any other questions or concerns?

Is this medication available here in the US? The medication is called Indanet. The actual drug is called Indometacina. It comes in 25mg light blue capsules. ## Yes, it is available here, the generic is available by prescription under the generic name Indomethacin, and the brand name Indocin. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have a chest infection and have been taking amoxicillin tablets. I am now suffering from gout, so can i take my indometacin to ease the pain? ## I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these medications, but it is always best to double check to be sure. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

? can I sub diflofenac dr? what is the difference? ## are diclofenac dr and indomethacin cr interchangable? ## They are both nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that are used to treat pain, fever and swelling, so they can be used to treat the same conditions, but they aren't directly interchangeable, because the required dosages would be different. Learn more Diclofenac details here. Learn more Indometacin details here. Your pharmacy also won't arbitrarily switch you from on to another, they both do require prescriptions, so such a change would have to be approved by your doctor. Have you been recommended one over the other?
