FAQs

Cyklokapron 100mg Injection 5ml contains tranexamic acid, an anti-fibrinolytic drug. Tranexamic acid helps the body's natural blood clotting mechanism by reducing fibrin breakdown, which prevents fibrinolysis, a process that prevents blood clot formation. As a result, Cyklokapron 100mg Injection 5ml helps to prevent excessive bleeding.

Taking this medication together with birth control pills may raise your chance of getting blood clots. To avoid pregnancy, use another method of birth control (such as condoms or spermicide). Consult your doctor in case of concerns.

People who have frequent nosebleeds or heavy periods can take tranexamic acid for a long time, for months or years. They normally only take it for a few days or a week at a time when the bleeding is severe. Take this medicine as your doctor prescribed.

Appropriate investigations have not revealed any geriatric-specific issues that would restrict the use of Cyklokapron 100mg Injection 5ml in the elderly. However, senior people are more prone to develop age-related renal issues. Thus, patients getting this medication should exercise caution.
