indomethacin and Spina Bifida Aperta

indomethacin has been researched along with Spina Bifida Aperta in 1 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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The association of DA constriction and low BMI suggests that BMI-based dosing of indomethacin may be recommended for perioperative tocolysis in fetal MMC surgery."1.56Maternal low body mass index is a risk factor for fetal ductal constriction following indomethacin use among women undergoing fetal repair of spina bifida.
