A patient with a greatly prolonged international normalised ratio (INR) during the combined use of warfarin and indomethacin is described. In patients on warfarin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) should be avoided as far as possible. If NSAIDs are absolutely necessary, patients should be closely monitored for prolongation of INR and bleeding.

Comparative Study Clinical Trial Controlled Clinical Trial
The body-worn alarm in the treatment of childhood enuresis.
Two studies examined the effectiveness of the body-worn alarm in out-patient treatment of childhood nocturnal enuresis. The first involved 40 children, previously untreated by conditioning methods, treated with either the body-worn alarm or the traditional pad and bell alarm. ⋯ Results of both studies indicated the body-worn alarm was as effective as other methods in terms of the proportion of children successfully treated and was superior with respect to rapidity of response and consumer appeal. Such findings indicate that the body-worn alarm could become the treatment of choice for nocturnal enuresis.
