Product introduction
Trantas 500 Tablet contains tranexamic acid, a medicine used to control excessive bleeding. It is often prescribed for heavy periods, but also finds use around dental procedures, surgery, and other situations where bleeding needs to be brought under control. The tablet works by helping the body's natural clotting process hold, rather than by thinning or thickening the blood itself. It should be taken strictly as directed by a doctor, since the dose and duration depend on the underlying cause of bleeding.
