There are a variety of illnesses and conditions that can cause excessive bleeding. These include hemophilia, certain surgeries, nosebleeds, and heavy bleeding with your menstrual cycle. Reducing the risk for bleeding is a priority to prevent serious health outcomes.
Tranexamic acid is part of a group of drugs known as antifibrinolytics. It’s available in several different forms: pills, mouthwash, liquids, and injections. It can be taken in advance of an anticipated medical event. Our clinician may prescribe it to you so that you can take it a few days before a surgery or your period.
There are two kinds of fibrinolysis that take place in your body. Primary fibrinolysis is part of normal functioning. However, secondary fibrinolysis is the result of a medical condition or as a side effect of a medication. When someone has secondary fibrinolysis, it can cause them to bleed excessively up to the point of a massive hemorrhage.
Antifibrinolytic drugs like tranexamic acid work to prevent blood clots from breaking down in fibrinolysis. They do this by inhibiting the enzymes that break down the fibrin that is essential in the formation of blood clots. The result is that the blood clots stay in place to allow wounds to heal.
Tranexamic acid pills are only available in 500 mg doses. If you’re still bleeding heavily despite being on tranexamic acid, you should get in touch with our clinician. There may be a better treatment to help you control your bleeding.

Amazing
Helped me so much my GP was useless. Would highly recommend
Perfect experience
Fast treatment, fast delivery 👌 would recommend
Great thank you
I wanted to try this on recommendation of two nurses. I have tried every hormonal thing that has been given to me and they all affected my mental health so severely, and just caused me to bleed a little bit constantly, that I can't take them. I am actually booked in for an ablation and sterilisation next month. Why nobody has given me this before I do not know but I needed to try it in a hurry. I can't get an appointment with my GP for 5 weeks so I took a punt here. I'm so glad I did. It is early days but I started using the tranexamic acid on my last period and oh my goodness, the difference is insane. I usually have to live on narcotic painkillers for 3-4 days each cycle just to get through the day with less pain. The tranexamic acid vastly reduced my bleeding AND the pain. Hopefully this will continue and I can forego the risks of surgery. I'll be asking my GP to prescribe this when I can finally see them but it is so reassuring to know that I can access this medication via Treated if necessary. Thank you so much.

They really focus on providing a positive customer experience before and after the sale.
