1. What is Tranexamic Acid APC Instytut and what is it used for

This medicine is used for heavy menstrual bleeding.

This medicine is a drug that reduces menstrual bleeding. It contains tranexamic acid, which prevents the action of the enzyme that dissolves blood clots. This results in less blood loss and faster relief of symptoms.

This medicine should only be used when your menstrual cycle is regular and you are over 15 years old.

2. What you need to know before taking Tranexamic Acid APC Instytut

This medicine should only be used if your periods are regular and heavy. To ensure this, you should always answer "yes" to the following questions:

  1. Are your periods regular, i.e., your menstrual cycle lasts between 21 and 35 days?
  2. Do you need to use double sanitary protection, such as pads and tampons or double pads, to prevent bleeding from seeping through, or do you need to change your sanitary protection very often?

  • You have irregular menstrual periods
  • You or your family have a history of blood clots in the blood vessels (i.e., thrombosis).
  • You have blood in your urine between menstrual periods.
  • You are taking oral contraceptives (there is an increased risk of blood clot formation)
