Dangerous combo: Do not combine these 2 nsaids because of the increased risk of major side effects.

NSAIDS are dangerous: The other doctors answer is corret. More specifically, out of about 7 or so chemically similar grouping in the NSAID class (non steroidal antiinflammatories) both diclofenac and Indomethacin are in the Acetic Acid category of medications. This makes their combination additive and therefore all side effects of standard nsaids (gastric bleeding being most dangerous) compounded. Please avoid!
