Can Tranexamic Acid Be Taken Before Taking A Flight?
Hi my period is due on the same day that I have to start a long haul flight (4 flights in total) and I am concerned about taking tranexamic acid during this time. My current dose is 2 tablets (500g ea), 3 times in 24 hours. Is it still reasonably safe? I have absolutely no other health issues, besides a taking a mild Valium when flying.
Hi Thanks for posting your query on HCM. I understand your concerns. Tranexamic Acid is an antifibrinolytic that helps to reduce excessive bleeding.It may not pose any problem if you take it.It may rather help to limit excessive menstrual bleeding during the journey. Hope this will help.You may write back if more concerns. Best regards
