Is Arthrexin Exactly The Same As Indocid?

I have previously had success with Indocid and took a prescription for it to the pharmacy but they gave me Indomethacin (Arthrexin). On a previous occasion I was given a substitute which did not reduce the swelling so I am suspicious of substitutes. Is Arthrexin EXACTLY the same as Indocid? Thank you Clem Sturgess YYYY@YYYY

Yes Arthrexin and Inindocid
Both have indomethacine as and ingredient so they are exactly the same
...if you take same dose of Arthrexin which you used to take of Indocid there should theocraticly be no problem at all..

Some quality of drugs and the material with which they make it can be different but in my opininion you are good to go with it and hopefully will have no issues.
