This potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) is used to treat moderate-to-severe pain and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis, gout, bursitis, and tendinitis. It works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes that produce prostaglandins. In newborns, intravenous indomethacin is used to close a patent ductus arteriosus.
