Indocin is very effective in stopping a gout attack if you are also managing your gout with diet (cutting out high purine foods) and drinking 2 liters of water a day) if you take it at the first sign of gout attacks. Taking Apple Cider Vinegar 2 TB in 8 oz water first thing when you wake up daily along with the diet and water (as above) will help keep your body more alkaline and less acidic so that you won't need to be taking Indocin too often or at all. During my first and so far only gout attack (because I decided to take the healthy road and fight my way out of the gout attacks) I was placed on Indocin, a 10 day pack of steroids, and Tramadol. I take high blood pressure. One morning I took the above pills, drank coffee and drove to work. When I arrived 30 min later I felt like I was going to pass out. I felt like my heart rate was rapid so I checked it and it was 90. Luckily I phoned the Walgreens pharmacy where I get my medications and explained the situation to the pharmacist (if I had not called the pharmacist, I was going to call 911 because I felt like it was that urgent and I was going down). She told me to take another high blood pressure pill. I did and within 20 min I was okay. I had to stop drinking coffee for awhile after developing gout even after the completion of the high power medications.
