Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
TRANTAS MF is composed of Tranexamic Acid (500mg) and Mefenamic Acid (250mg).
Tranexamic acid belongs to a class of medication called as anti-fibrinolytic. It prevents bleeding during heavy menstruation.
Mefenamic acid belongs to the class of medications called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It prevents pain during menstruation.
Common side effects encountered with its use include: Drowsiness, Diarrhoea, Abdominal pain, Dizziness, Headache, Heartburn, Nausea, Stomach upset, Fatigue, Headache, Muscle pain and Vomiting.
This medication can be used for your condition. However, you need to consult Gynaecologist for proper dose prescription.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
