Several things: Indocin (indomethacin) is an ant-inflamatory medication that will help to decrease the initial pain and swelling of a gout attack.

Hopefully, the gout: Attack subsides and you feel better. Indocin (indomethacin) is notorious for creating stomach issues, so the best would be for the Indocin (indomethacin) to work before bothering the stomach. That's why other antiinflammatory medications are often used.
