What Are The Effects Of Taking Advil With Indomethacin?
I have been having raised bp and heart rate, then low episodes for the past hour, along with blurred vision, and extreme jaw pain. I take indomethacin and accidently took advil for cramps and was told not to take IB Propheren products with it. I an also currently having my 24 hour urine further tested because the chroma something levels were elevated. (sorry, don t know the med term) I have an adrenal gland tumor. Should i be worried? I don t wasn t to drag my child to the ER in the middle of the night with me if I well be fine.

Hello,
Indomethacin and ibuprofen are NSAIDs and are used for pain and inflammation.
I also want to add that although you should have gone with your doctor's instruction, there is not much to worry if you have taken both indomethacin and ibuprofen together.
There is an outside chance that you may have hyperacidity or burning sensation in the stomach but it can be taken care of with antacids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
