With intensely painful and disabling inflammatory arthritis, gout flares often affect one joint but can also affect two or more. In a gout flare, therapy aims to quickly and safely end pain and incapacity. Without treatment, the gout flare typically goes away completely in a matter of days to weeks, especially in cases of early illness. Nevertheless, anti-inflammatory medicine treatment speeds up the improvement of symptoms.

Upon successfully treating a gout flare you are said to have entered a symptom-free (interval, intercritical, or between flares) period. The majority of patients, however, have flares again and again; with more frequent episodes, flares may be more severe and longer, consequently shortening asymptomatic periods.

Gout Therapy with Indometacin:

Indometacin often referred to as indomethacin, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is frequently used as a medicine to treat inflammation-related fever, pain, stiffness, and oedema. It functions by preventing the creation of prostaglandins, the endogenous signalling molecules that are responsible for these symptoms. This is achieved by blocking the enzyme cyclooxygenase, which catalyses the formation of prostaglandins.
