The co-crystals were characterized and compared by an X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, terahertz (THz) spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Methods: Indomethacin co-crystals with either amides (saccharin, nicotine amide, and urea) or amino acids (lysine and histidine) as co-formers were prepared through the solvent evaporation method. The co-crystals were characterized by XRD, THz, and FT-IR analyses, followed by solubility tests to examine the solubility enhancement. Results: Both the XRD and THz analyses were capable of distinguishing co-crystals from physical mixtures; however, the THz spectra were relatively simpler and clearer than the XRD analysis. Furthermore, the solubility of indomethacin was successfully increased by two to three times that of pure indomethacin after co-crystallization with the above five co-formers. Conclusion: Five kinds of indomethacin co-crystals (with enhanced solubility) were successfully prepared and confirmed by the three spectroscopy techniques, XRD, THz, and FT-IR. The identification of co-crystals was achieved by a THz analysis, giving relatively simpler and clearer spectra with less noise. Hence, in addition to an XRD analysis, a THz analysis (a non-destructive, non-ionizing radiative, and relatively rapid measurement technique which is convenient and safe to use) is a good alternative method to characterize co-crystals. <a href="/2813-9380/1/1/2">Full article</a> </div> </div> <a href="#" class="abstract-figures-show" data-counterslink = "https://www.mdpi.com/2813-9380/1/1/2/show" ><span >►</span><span style=" display: none;">▼</span> Show Figures </a><div class="abstract-image-preview "><div class="arrow left-arrow" id="prev1443330"><i class="fa fa-caret-left"></i></div><div class="arrow right-arrow" id="next1443330"><i class="fa fa-caret-right"></i></div><div class="absgraph cycle-slideshow manual" data-cycle-fx="scrollHorz" data-cycle-timeout="0" data-cycle-next="#next1443330" data-cycle-prev="#prev1443330" data-cycle-progressive="#images1443330" data-cycle-slides=">div" data-cycle-log="false"><div class='openpopupgallery cycle-slide' data-imgindex='0' data-target='article-1443330-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAD/ACwAAAAAAQABAAACADs=" data-src="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-ag-550.jpg?1730449877" alt="" style="border: 0;"><p>Graphical abstract</p></div><script id="images1443330" type="text/cycle" data-cycle-split="---"><div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='1' data-target='article-1443330-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-g001-550.jpg?1721983586'><p>Figure 1</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='2' data-target='article-1443330-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-g002-550.jpg?1721983588'><p>Figure 2</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='3' data-target='article-1443330-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-g003-550.jpg?1721983591'><p>Figure 3</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='4' data-target='article-1443330-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-g004-550.jpg?1721983594'><p>Figure 4</p></div> --- <div class='openpopupgallery' data-imgindex='5' data-target='article-1443330-popup'><span class="helper"></span><img src='https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-g005-550.jpg?1721983596'><p>Figure 5</p></div></script></div></div><div id="article-1443330-popup" class="popupgallery" style="display: inline; line-height: 200%"><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-ag-550.jpg?1730449877" title=" <strong>Graphical abstract</strong><br/><strong style='display: block; margin-top: 10px; font-size: 18px;'><a style='color: #fff' href='/2813-9380/1/1/2'>Full article</a></strong> "></a><a href="https://pub.mdpi-res.com/jpbi/jpbi-01-00002/article_deploy/html/images/jpbi-01-00002-g001-550.jpg?1721983586" title=" <strong>Figure 1</strong><br/> <p>Indomethacin/saccharin (IND/SAC) system.
