Is artridol good for sciatica! ## Hello, Hutts! How are you? Artridol should not be taken, without your doctor's approval. It contains Indomethacin (a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory) and Betamethasone (a steroid class medication.) Thus, there can be some risks associated with taking it, which as listed by the FDA, may include increased risk of bleeding, elevated heart rate, elevated blood pressure, fluid retention and heart failure. So, it may be contraindicated with some medical conditions and some other medications. Is there anything else I can help with?

My dog can not go to vet for approx 24hrs he can not walk seen this could be for different reasons all i have at the moment is a mylan 143 and i believe it is an indomethacin and can be dangerous but could i just break the capsule and add a little bit on something for him to eat to help him out till i get to the vet ## @from ohio, Even though indomethacin is just a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, I don't think it would be wise to give any amount of it to your dog without first consulting with a veterinarian. It sounds like you have an appointment already made, but maybe if you just called asking for some quick advice, they'd probably be able to offer you their professional opinion on it's overall safety for dogs and protocols relating to proper dosing/administration.

works extremely well for gout or arthritis joint pain and inflammation - suppositories unfortunately work best rather than tabs ## Hello, Django! How are you? Here's hoping you're still unchained! ;-) I'm glad that this medication is working for you. Suppositories tend to be absorbed faster, so the medication works quicker and it also avoids the stomach damage and nausea that can occur from taking oral medications. This medication contains the active ingredient Indomethacin, which is a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, other side effects listed by the FDA may include headache and increased risk of bleeding. Are there any questions or concerns?

My brother is taking Norco after a knee replacement, but a few days ago he came up with another problem. Having had gout before, he started getting redness and some swelling under the other foot. Can he take the green pill, Indomethacin while taking the Norco? ## Hello, Panda! How is your brother doing? I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these two medications, but it's always best to double check to be sure. So, there shouldn't be any problem, as long as his doctor approves. Norco is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Side effects...

If this is well tolerated, increase the daily dosage by 25 mg or by 50 mg, if required by continuing symptoms, at weekly intervals until a satisfactory response is obtained or until a total daily dose of 150 mg to 200 mg is reached. DOSES ABOVE THIS AMOUNT GENERALLY DO NOT INCREASE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE DRUG." If dosing instructions are noting "weekly intervals" I can say that it's probably ...
