Yes both the drugs are safe.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.

Yes both the drugs are safe.

You can also try one tablet of methergine and also tablet tranexamic acid to reduce the bleed. But if the clots do not stop even with these medicines after 5 days then get a sonography and follow up with me.
