Indomethacin is marketed under various brand names that include Indocin, Indocid, Indochron E-R, and Indocin-SR. But, like in case with other medications, Mylan Pharmaceuticals manufactures the generic version of the drug, so it is called Indomethacin. Mylan's Indomethacin is available in green-colored capsules of 25 and 50 mg in strength. Indomethacin belongs to the group of NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), and is used to treat fever, pain, and
swelling - mainly in patients suffering from different forms of arthritis, to reduce fever and pain associated with malignant tumors, and also as a pain-killer for headaches, and menstrual cramps. 25mg oral dose of Indomethacin is said to be as effective as 300mg Aspirin.
