Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain, swelling, and inflammation caused by various conditions. Here's some key information about indomethacin sustained-release (SR) tablets:

1. Indications:

   • Indomethacin is used to treat a variety of conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gouty arthritis, and acute painful shoulder (bursitis and/or tendinitis).
   • It is also used to relieve moderate to severe pain, such as pain from musculoskeletal injuries, postoperative pain, and certain types of headaches.

2. Mechanism of Action:

   • Indomethacin works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are substances in the body that play a role in inflammation, pain, and fever. By inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, indomethacin helps to reduce inflammation and pain.
