Abstract

Two cases of indomethacin poisoning with supporting analytical data are described and the literature, which is limited to two reports, is reviewed. In overdose, indomethacin may produce the following non-life threatening symptoms: nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, anorexia, drowsiness, headache, tinnitus, restlessness and agitation. The terminal elimination half-life in our two cases was respectively 6.8 hr and 2.9 hr which is similar to that found following a therapeutic dose.
