Tranexamic Acid

Tranexamic Acid is an antifibrinolytic (anti-bleeding) medicine. It is prescribed for heavy menstrual bleeding, nosebleeds, bleeding after surgery or injury, dental bleeding in bleeding disorders and hereditary angioedema. Below you will find how it is used, how it works, its possible side effects and the brands of Tranexamic Acid you can order online from Sargodha.

What is Tranexamic Acid used for?

Tranexamic Acid reduces bleeding in heavy periods, nosebleeds, after surgery or injury, and in people with bleeding disorders having dental work. It also treats hereditary angioedema.

How Tranexamic Acid works

Tranexamic acid stops the breakdown of blood clots, so a clot that forms at a bleeding site stays in place longer.

Side effects of Tranexamic Acid

Many people take Tranexamic Acid without any trouble. When side effects do occur they are usually mild, and may include:

• Nausea or diarrhoea
• Headache
• Back pain

Seek urgent help for signs of a blood clot such as leg swelling, chest pain, breathlessness, sudden vision change or severe headache.

Before you take Tranexamic Acid
