Overview
Transamin 250mg Capsule contains tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic medicine used to reduce or prevent excessive bleeding, including heavy menstrual bleeding, bleeding after surgery or dental procedures, and bleeding related to certain medical conditions.
Tranexamic acid works by stabilising blood clots once they have formed, preventing the body from breaking them down too quickly and allowing bleeding to stop more effectively.
How it Works
Transamin blocks the breakdown of fibrin, the protein mesh that forms the structural framework of a blood clot. By preventing premature clot breakdown, tranexamic acid helps the body maintain a stable clot at the site of bleeding, reducing blood loss.
Directions for Use
Take the capsule with a full glass of water, with or without food, at the times directed by your doctor, usually only during episodes of heavy bleeding.
Dosage
The usual dose depends on the condition being treated, commonly two to three capsules taken two to three times daily during the period of bleeding, as directed by your doctor.
Shelf Life
Refer to the expiry date printed on the packaging.
Storage Instructions
Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
