The present invention relates to a method and composition for treating sunburned skin. The present invention provides a method and composition for applying a mixture of indomethacin and moisturizing lotion topically to sunburned skin. The composition includes a mixture having substantially 100 milligrams of indomethacin per 30 cc of moisturizing lotion. The moisturizing lotion is marketed under the trade name Cetaphil® and includes the following ingredients: purified water, glycerin, hydrogenated polyisobutene, cetearyl alcohol (and) ceteareth-20, macadamia nut oil, dimethicone, tocopheryl acetate, stearoxytrimethylsilane (and) stearyl alcohol, panthenol, farnesol, benzyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, sodium hydroxide, and citric acid. It is theorized that the Cetaphil® provides certain pH and viscosity levels which allow for the stabilization and solubilation of the indomethacin within the Cetaphil®.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for treating sunburned skin, comprising the steps of: providing a composition which is an admixture consisting essentially of indomethacin and a moisturizing lotion, the moisturizing lotion being an oil and water emulsion consisting essentially of purified water, glycerin, hydrogenated polisobutene, cetearyl alcohol (and) ceteareth-20, macadamia nut oil, dimethicone, tocopheryl acetate, stearoxytrimethylsilane (and) stearyl alcohol, panthenol, farnesol, benzyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, sodium hydroxide, and citric acid having a pH between about 6.3 and 6.5, wherein the indomethacin is maintained in stable and stabilized form in the moisturizing lotion, and wherein the indomethacin is present in a therapeutically effective concentration comprising approximately 100 milligrams of indomethacin for every 30 cc's of moisturizing lotion, applying said mixture topically to sunburned skin and allowing the applied mixture to remain in contact with the skin for an interval sufficient to deliver indomethacin transdermally to the sunburned skin. 2. A composition for treating sunburned skin, consisting of: a therapeutical amount of indomethacin; and an a moisturizing lotion composition being an oil and water emulsion consisting essentially of purified water, glycerin, hydrogenated polisobutene, cetearyl alcohol (and) ceteareth-20, macadamia nut oil, dimethicone, tocopheryl acetate, stearoxytrimethylsilane (and) stearyl alcohol, panthenol, farnesol, benzyl alcohol, phenoxyethanol, acrylates/C10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, sodium hydroxide, and citric acid having a pH between about 6.3 and 6.5, wherein the indomethacin is present in stable and stabilized form, wherein said composition contains approximately 100 milligrams of indomethacin for every 30 cc's of moisturizing lotion.
