Product Description

Indomethacin is a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve moderate to severe pain, swelling, and stiffness from inflammation. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, chemical messengers in the body that cause pain, fever, and inflammation.

How Indomethacin Works

Indomethacin acts by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes, which are responsible for the biosynthesis of prostaglandins—key mediators of pain, inflammation, and fever. By reducing prostaglandin formation, Indomethacin produces anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic effects. It also decreases vasodilation, edema, and leukocyte migration at sites of inflammation, making it a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID).
