A member asked:

Can you take indocin (indomethacin) before a surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Safer Not To: Depending on how long before surgery you're talking about, it may be safe. More than 24 hours before surgery, you're probably safe. After that point, you're better off not taking it to avoid bleeding risks associated with that type of drug.
