One of the diagnostic criteria for both HC and PH is the absolute response to the therapeutic dose of indomethacin. However, indomethacin is discontinued in many patients as a result of intolerance to its side effects. Melatonin, a pineal hormone, which shares similar chemical structure to indomethacin, has been reported to have some efficacy for HC in previous case reports and series.
