Drug Interactions
La indometacina puede aumentar los niveles de metotrexato en la sangre. Existe un mayor riesgo de hemorragia estomacal e intestinal si se toma indometacina con warfarina. Puede hacer que los medicamentos para la presión arterial como la hidralazina, la furosemida, los betabloqueantes (como atenolol, propranolol, oxprenolol) o los diuréticos tiazídicos sean menos efectivos. La posibilidad de niveles altos de potasio en la sangre aumenta cuando se usa con diuréticos ahorradores de potasio, inhibidores de la ECA o suplementos de potasio. La indometacina también puede aumentar el daño renal si se toma con ciclosporina o triamtereno. El probenecid puede aumentar los niveles de indometacina en la sangre. En recién nacidos prematuros, puede elevar los niveles de aminoglucósidos (como amikacina o gentamicina). Tomar indometacina con haloperidol puede provocar efectos secundarios más fuertes de los fármacos antipsicóticos, como somnolencia intensa y confusión. Los antiácidos que contienen aluminio o magnesio pueden ayudar a reducir los problemas estomacales causados por la indometacina.
**Advertencia (potencialmente mortal):** El diflunisal puede disminuir el aclaramiento renal y aumentar los niveles de indometacina, lo que puede causar hemorragia estomacal o intestinal mortal.
Contraindications
La indometacina no debe usarse en personas que actualmente tienen úlceras, gastritis o colitis ulcerosa activa. También se debe evitar si alguien alguna vez ha tenido una reacción alérgica. Si una persona ha tenido estos problemas estomacales o intestinales en el pasado, la indometacina debe usarse con precaución.
Mode of actions
La indometacina es un tipo de medicamento que pertenece al grupo del ácido indolacético. Ayuda a reducir la inflamación, aliviar el dolor y bajar la fiebre. Actúa bloqueando las enzimas ciclooxigenasa-1 y -2 (COX-1 y COX-2), lo que conduce a una menor producción de prostaglandinas, las sustancias que causan inflamación y dolor.
Dosage & Administration
