Indometacin Uses

  Indometacin (CAS NO.53-86-1) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug commonly used to reduce fever, pain, stiffness, and swelling. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, molecules known to cause these symptoms.

Indometacin Safety Profile

A poison by ingestion, intravenous, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes. Human systemic effects by ingestion: aplastic anemia, changes in kidney tubules, decreased urine volume, diarrhea, fibrous hepatitis, hemorrhage, hypermotility, liver changes, necrotic stomach changes, retinal changes. Human teratogenic effects by ingestion and intravenous routes: developmental abnormalities of the respiratory system and urogenital system, homeostasis, other neonatal effects. Experimental teratogenic and reproductive effects. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic Cl and NOx.
