Product introduction
Trantas MF Tablet is prescribed for women dealing with both heavy menstrual flow and the cramping pain that often comes with it, combining two medicines that tackle each problem separately. Tranexamic acid works to control excessive bleeding, while mefenamic acid, an anti-inflammatory painkiller, eases the cramping and discomfort. Rather than being taken continuously, it is typically used only during the days of heavy bleeding or pain each cycle, as guided by a doctor. It is available only against a valid prescription.
