reduces it

less ATP can be made

12h hours - long time

105

Q

how does indomethacin work

A

inhibits COX and phospholipase A2

107
Q

what does indomethacin do (immune)

A

impedes migration and proliferation of immune cells

108
Q

what are conditions that indomethacin is used for

A
extreme things (really strong)
rheumatic conditions (gout, ankylosing spondylitis) patent ductus arteriosus
109
Q

how strong is indomethacin

A

very

110
Q

what are the side effects of indomethacin

A

lots because its so strong

111
Q

what are some side effects of indomethacin

A

GI upset, pancreatitis, headache, dizziness, confusion, thrombocytopenia, aplastic anemia

112
Q

what is ductus arteiosis

A

a short circuit vessel in fetal circulation that bypasses the lugns

113
Q

why is ductus arteiosis used
