Dear Mari
thank you for your help. i appreciate it because right now i am googling how to get to the dentist because i have forgotten!  this stuff does not cause mania for me - i have taken up to 100 mg at a time. i use it regularly for migraines. regularly means about 2ce a month. typically 50mg tid covers the migraine. very occasionally i might need a dose of 75mg. 100 is extremely rare. this migraine is "out of place" meaning it did not fall in the usual period when i have my two monthly migraines (indeed, i would not schedule a tooth extraction then!  )issues with having taken it are: - it thins blood same as any other NSAID, so taking it before can be an issue especially if stitches are not to be given - it has a a longer half-life (4.5 hours compare to about 1.8 for ibuprofen) again thanks for your help i will check back... ~ waves ~ |

they called back as i was about to get the bus - the dentist said it was ok that i had already taken indomethacin. i took my second dose before the procedure - more or less when i would have for the migraine, instead of taking the NSAID they usually give. the dentist also said if i took it the rest of the day for the migraine that would also cover the post-op needs. sometimes just 2 doses is enough for the migraine, but i guess i will take a third before i go to bed.
thanks again for your help this morning. ~ waves ~ |

Waves,
I've got "stupid" working today and I am sorry I am not being helpful. If indomethacin is a blood thinner, it might not be good if you are having an extraction. http://avidpurehealth.com/health/Con...ethacincd.html Quote:
