From what I could gather, Arthrexin (Indomethacin) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) commonly used as a prescription medication to reduce fever, pain, stiffness, and swelling. It has also been shown to be effective in migraine, both for prevention of migraine as well as treating the acute migraine attack. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, molecules known to cause these symptoms. This pharmacology may be what's attributing to the success of this medication.

I've also come across several reviews on Google with patients raving about how well it works for their migraine. But some posts also make a point of mentioning that you should be careful of long term use, due to it's potentially unsafe side effects.

I hope this info helps!
