Tranexamic acid basic information
Tranexamic Acid, or Tranexamic Acid, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C8H15NO2, which was originally invented in 1961 by a Japanese female physician, Dr. Gekko Okamoto, and named "Tranexamic Acid". It is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid lysine, which has antifibrinolytic activity and is therefore used as a hemostatic agent. It can be obtained from animal organs, seafood, marine plants and some poultry and eggs.
Tranexamic Acid benefits
Tranexamic Acid (Tranexamic Acid) offers a variety of benefits. Clinically, Tranexamic Acid is commonly used as a hemostatic agent for the treatment of a variety of hemorrhages due to limited or systemic primary hyperfibrinolysis. In addition, Tranexamic Acid promotes wound healing, lightens pigmentation, and has anti-inflammatory and antiviral effects.
Specifically, Tranexamic acid has the following benefits:
-
Stops bleeding: Transminoic acid can inhibit the degradation of fibrin under the action of fibrinolytic enzymes, thus stopping bleeding.
Promotes wound healing: Tranexamic acid can promote the metabolism of skin cells, accelerating wound healing.
-
Lighten pigmentation: Tranexamic acid can inhibit the activity of melanocytes and reduce melanin production, thus lightening skin pigmentation.
-
Anti-inflammatory: Tranexamic acid can inhibit inflammatory reactions and reduce tissue damage caused by inflammation.
-
Antiviral: Tranexamic acid can inhibit the replication and spread of viruses, and has a certain preventive and therapeutic effect on viral infections.

💬How does Tranexamic Acid work to stop bleeding?
Tranexamic Acid has the principle of hemostasis because it is a fibrinolytic enzyme inhibitor. Tranexamic Acid can reversibly block the lysine binding site on the fibrinogen molecule, resulting in the inability of fibrinogen to convert into fibrinolytic enzyme, thus effectively inhibiting fibrinolysis and producing hemostasis.
Therefore, Tranexamic acid is widely used in surgery, internal medicine, urology and obstetrics and gynecology to treat various bleeding disorders and abnormal bleeding during surgery.
💬About the whitening effect of Tranexamic Acid
Tranexamic Acid does have a whitening effect. It inhibits the activity of tyrosinase enzymes and melanocytes, prevents melanin from aggregating, and blocks the deterioration of melanin formed by ultraviolet irradiation, thus achieving a whitening effect. The whitening effect of Tranexamic acid is more obvious, and the safety is relatively high, after the use of the skin will not produce a sense of irritation, but also can lighten the spots, improve the overall transparency of skin color and local skin dullness, so that the skin has a "white and red" whitening effect.
💬Is Tranexamic acid safe?
Yes,but it may have some side effects in some cases, including:
1.Gastrointestinal symptoms: such as diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting.
2.Problems with blood coagulation: the Transdermal Acid may affect blood clotting, leading to prolonged bleeding.
3.Allergic reactions: such as itchy skin, rashes, hives, etc.
4.Vision problems: Tranexamic acid may affect the optic nerve, resulting in blurred vision or blurred eyesight.
🔔 The following precautions need to be taken when using Tranexamic acid:
Pay attention to the dosage: the dosage of Tranexamic Acid should be used according to your doctor's advice, do not adjust the dosage or stop the medication on your own.
Avoid prolonged use: Transdermal Acid should not be used in large quantities over a long period of time. Prolonged use may cause the body to develop a resistance to it, as well as increase the risk of side effects.
Use with caution in breastfeeding and pregnant women: Tranexamic acid may have adverse effects on babies and fetuses, so breastfeeding and pregnant women should consult their doctor or pharmacist for advice before using Tranexamic acid.
