Here are some frequently asked questions about TRANBLESS TAB:

What is TRANBLESS TAB used for?

TRANBLESS TAB is used to treat and control abnormal or unwanted bleeding in various conditions. This includes heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia), nosebleeds (epistaxis), and bleeding associated with certain surgical procedures such as cervical, prostate, or bladder surgery. It can also be used for bleeding inside the eye (traumatic hyphaema) and in a hereditary condition called angioneurotic edema (HANO).

How does TRANBLESS TAB work?

TRANBLESS TAB contains tranexamic acid, which is an anti-fibrinolytic agent. It works by regulating the breakdown of blood clots. Specifically, it blocks the action of plasmin, an enzyme that is essential for dissolving blood clots. By preventing clots from breaking down too quickly, it helps to slow down bleeding.

What is the usual dosage of TRANBLESS TAB?

The dose and duration of TRANBLESS TAB are determined by your doctor based on your specific health condition. It is typically taken 2-3 times a day or as prescribed. For heavy menstrual bleeding, it is usually taken for up to 5 days, starting on the first day of your period. It should be swallowed whole with water and not chewed, crushed, or broken. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.

What are the possible side effects of TRANBLESS TAB?

Common side effects of TRANBLESS TAB include nausea, diarrhea, itchy skin, musculoskeletal pain (muscle, bone, or joint pain), headache, back pain, vomiting, abdominal pain, fatigue, low blood pressure (hypotension), and allergic dermatitis. Most of these side effects are usually temporary and resolve as your body adjusts to the medicine. If any serious side effects, such as vision problems, occur or common side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.

Is TRANBLESS TAB safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

TRANBLESS TAB is classified as a category B medicine, meaning it may not cause toxic effects to the fetus. However, it should only be used during pregnancy if clearly prescribed by a doctor. It is likely safe to use during breastfeeding, as limited human data suggests no significant risk to the baby, but should only be used if prescribed by a doctor.

Can TRANBLESS TAB be taken with other medications?

You should inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and herbal products. TRANBLESS TAB should generally be avoided with hormonal birth control methods (like pills, patches, or vaginal rings) due to an increased risk of deep vein thrombosis (blood clots). It may also interact with fibrinolytic agents (drugs that break blood clots), potentially stopping the effect of TRANBLESS TAB.

What precautions should be taken while using TRANBLESS TAB?

Before taking TRANBLESS TAB, inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney disease, thrombosis (blood clots), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), irregular periods, or seizures. Also, inform your doctor if you notice blood in your urine (except during menstruation). Regular eye and blood tests may be advised by your doctor to monitor vision and liver/kidney function. Dizziness can occur, so avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel dizzy. It should be used with caution in patients with liver diseases, and dose adjustments may be needed for those with kidney issues.

What happens if a dose of TRANBLESS TAB is missed?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

How should TRANBLESS TAB be stored?

TRANBLESS TAB should be stored in a cool, dry, and dark place, away from direct sunlight. Keep it out of sight and reach of children.
