INDOMETHACIN vs NAPROXEN

How do you guys handle beers’ list issues in retail? My chain has now made it a hard-stop contraindication and our general guidelines for those are that we have to document that we spoke to the provider and discuss the issue. The problem is the majority of these are for acute conditions, promethazin

Today I was counseling a customer on Indomethacin and when I was done I asked him if he had any questions. He did but because of his accent when I asked if there were any reactions I heard he say “Any erections?”

Has any pharmacist seen such an indication for indomethacin? So it looks like this is used for headaches associated with sexual activity? But the most common side effect of indomethacin is headache! ​

I have a patient who is continuing on a compounded medication of dihydroergotamine 10 mg, indomethacin 50mg, metoclopramide 10mg, and caffeine 30mg. Has anyone heard of this combination or know anymore about it? Not even sure where to start writing this or anything.

I work at an educational institution. Today, I made an indomethacin (placebo) 5mg/mL suspension using placebo powder, sucrose, methylcellulose, and purified water. I thought suspending agent like methylcellulose is going to slow down sedimentation of the placebo powder, but I never expected to see s

Physician here. I saw a pt in clinic today who showed me a pic of a med he took for his back pain (from Mexico). It was a tablet with a steroid(cant remember which one but it was 0.5mg), 25mg indomethacin, and methocarbamol (don’t remember dose). It just got me and one of my partners talking. What

Going to a small get-together for new years, and the poison ring I bought myself came in JUST in time! Cant wait to discreetly take my mid-party naproxen without having to fish through my purse! Happy new year everyone, may 2026 hurt less than 2025 🥳

I have so much wrong with me. Like it’s genuinely whole body at this point. Back pain, internal tremors, migraines, stomach issues, fatigue, heart palpitations, dysautonomia, rib pain, brain fog, vertigo, muscle inflammation, hands aching, pain that covers my whole body, knees hurting. I could keep

I'm hypermobile and fat and this has caused me to develop osteoarthritis in my hip, normal NSAIDs don't work on me and I'm allergic to naproxen. I'm scared of becoming addicted to opioids because they seem to be the only thing that helps but I've already gotten 2 prescriptions of them and I'm curren

This is more of a rant I guess. I've been struggling with pain for over a decade now, and no matter how bad it gets, I'm given naproxen or acetaminophen. Naproxen doesn't work for me, and it requires high doses of acetaminophen for me to get a small amount of relief. But they are still the only pai

Had a flare up today and usually when this happens I can’t walk. I usually end up in the ER because when I call my doctor I always get “we can’t help you unless you come in” Ma’am you diagnosed me and all I need is a steroid pack and some naproxen to reduce swelling. So when I was finally mobile eno

one more time. I’m going to scream. Anyone with me?

I have chronic pain along with fatigue and other issues and a majority of my pills are for my pain my doctors are trying me on so much before actually giving me anything to relieve the pain. I asked for 500mg naproxen and was given a muscle relaxer to take 3 times a day i’m up to at least 12 pills a

Hey everyone! I’ve been seeing a lot of posts lately in this sub and in others about people asking for little things that help manage the pain, so I thought I’d compile a list of stuff that helps me and others can tack on what helps them in the comments. I hope someone finds this useful! - **Prescri
