✔️ Pharmacology

Tranexamic acid is primarily metabolized in the liver and excreted in the urine. The elimination half-life is about 2 hours, but it may be prolonged in patients with impaired renal function. The dose of tranexamic acid should be reduced in patients with renal impairment. Tranexamic acid should also be used with caution in patients with a history of thromboembolic events, as it may increase the risk of such events. Additionally, it should not be used in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to tranexamic acid or any of its components. Tranexamic acid is available in various forms, including tablets, injections, and topical preparations, and it should only be used under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

✔️ Dosage & Administrations of Tracid 500mg Tablet

• It is important to note that dosing for tranexamic acid in individuals with renal impairment should be adjusted based on their serum creatinine concentration.
• For those with a serum creatinine concentration of 120-250 micromol/l, the recommended dose is 15 mg/kg twice daily.
• For those with a serum creatinine concentration of 250-500 micromol/l, the recommended dose is 15 mg/kg once daily.
• For individuals with a serum creatinine concentration greater than 500 micromol/l, the recommended dose is 7.5 mg/kg once daily or 15 mg/kg once every 48 hours.
• The drug has had limited use in pediatric patients, principally in connection with tooth extraction.
