I am suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for almost two years. This condition really bothers me, because I am a very active and energetic person, always in motion. Things are different now. I am taking indomethacin for my problems and it does help, even though I sometimes still feel pain. My sister suggested me to tray Advil and I would like to know which is better Advil or indomethacin.

Indomethacin is the strongest inhibitor of prostaglandins creation in the NSAID group, nut tat he same time, most toxic. A for side effects, there are intestinal problems. Pain, nausea, vomiting, intestinal bleeding, headaches, dizziness, sometimes even hallucinations. So, perhaps you could try with Advil, but be aware of ulcers and allergic reactions.
