indomethacin and Central Nervous System Diseases

indomethacin has been researched along with Central Nervous System Diseases in 16 studies

Indomethacin: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES.
indometacin : A member of the class of indole-3-acetic acids that is indole-3-acetic acid in which the indole ring is substituted at positions 1, 2 and 5 by p-chlorobenzoyl, methyl, and methoxy groups, respectively. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of musculoskeletal and joint disorders including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, bursitis and tendinitis.

Central Nervous System Diseases: Diseases of any component of the brain (including the cerebral hemispheres, diencephalon, brain stem, and cerebellum) or the spinal cord.

"A double-blind, double-dummy, crossover study was carried out in 8 centres to compare the efficacy and tolerability of 'controlled-release' ketoprofen tablets (200 mg) with that of indomethacin suppositories (100 mg) in out-patients with definite or classical rheumatoid arthritis."9.07A double-blind comparison of oral ketoprofen 'controlled release' and indomethacin suppository in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with special regard to morning stiffness and pain on awakening.

"In patients with orthostatic hypotension and central nervous system involvement indomethacin increased recumbent blood pressure, resting forearm vascular resistance, and reflex forearm vasoconstriction during lower body negative pressure."1.27Increase in reflex vasoconstriction with indomethacin in patients with orthostatic hypotension and central nervous system involvement.
