TraNet-500

Composition:

• Tranexamic Acid 500 mg

Description:

TraNet 500 is a potent hemostatic agent that contains Tranexamic Acid, an antifibrinolytic medication that helps in preventing excessive bleeding. Tranexamic acid works by inhibiting the activation of plasminogen to plasmin, which is responsible for breaking down fibrin in the blood clot. This action helps in stabilizing blood clots, thus controlling bleeding in various medical conditions.

TraNet 500 is commonly prescribed for conditions that require the control or prevention of excessive bleeding, particularly in surgeries, heavy menstrual bleeding, and certain bleeding disorders.

Indications:

TraNet 500 is used to treat or manage:

• Menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding).
• Post-surgical bleeding: Particularly after dental or gynecological surgery.
• Bleeding disorders: Conditions like hemophilia or surgery in individuals with bleeding disorders.
• Trauma-related bleeding: In cases of significant trauma or accidents where bleeding control is needed.
• Nosebleeds (epistaxis) in certain cases.
• Alleviating bleeding during or after childbirth (postpartum hemorrhage).
• Blood loss in patients with disorders like hereditary angioedema.

Benefits:

• Effective Hemostasis: Controls excessive bleeding effectively.
• Reduced Blood Loss: Particularly beneficial during surgeries or in conditions causing abnormal bleeding.
• Versatile Use: Can be used in multiple scenarios, including gynecological and surgical procedures.
• Improves Patient Recovery: Reduces the risks associated with significant blood loss.
