Indocin vs. Mobic

Head-to-head comparisons of medication uses, side effects, warnings, and more.

Key takeaways

Indomethacin (Indocin) and meloxicam (Mobic) are both NSAIDs used to treat arthritis pain, but they have some key differences. Indomethacin is available as a tablet, liquid, and rectal suppository, while meloxicam comes in oral forms like capsules, tablets, and liquid, as well as an injectable form. Indomethacin is typically used multiple times a day, whereas meloxicam is usually taken once daily. Meloxicam tends to cause fewer stomach and kidney side effects because it blocks COX-2 more than COX-1, unlike indomethacin, which blocks both COX-1 and COX-2. Both medications require a prescription and are not safe during pregnancy.
