Metabolite Identification
Common NameIndomethacin
DescriptionIndomethacin, also known as aconip or indocin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzoylindoles. These are organic compounds containing an indole attached to a benzoyl moiety through the acyl group. In humans, indomethacin is involved in the indomethacin action pathway. Indomethacin is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Indomethacin.
