About Ethored-TX Tablet 10's

Ethored-TX Tablet 10's belongs to the class of medications called ‘Antihemorrhagic agents’ used to treat menorrhagia. Menorrhagia is a condition characterized by heavy or prolonged bleeding during menstrual periods. You are said to have menorrhagia if the bleeding is heavy to disrupt your daily activities, soaking one or more sanitary pads or tampons every hour for several consecutive hours, bleeding for more than a week, and experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, pale face, and shortness of breath. It is also used to stop postoperative hemorrhage (excessive bleeding after a surgical procedure), and local fibrinolysis (abnormal breakdown of blood clots)

Ethored-TX Tablet 10's is a combination of two medicines: Tranexamic acid and Etamsylate. Tranexamic acid belongs to the class of ‘anti-fibrinolytic agents’ which acts by regulating the breakdown of blood clots. It blocks the release and action of plasmin, an enzyme essential for the breakdown of clots present in the blood. Etamsylate is a hemostatic agent (prevents bleeding). It increases the ability of platelets to stick together (platelet adhesion) and form blood clots. It inhibits the action of chemical substances that cause the breakdown of platelets. These effects help to decrease abnormal bleeding.

You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Ethored-TX Tablet 10's may cause side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, fever, chills, rash, severe headache, back or joint pain, muscle pain, difficulty moving, and runny or stuffy nose. These side-effects usually go away without any treatment. If you develop any other serious side-effects such as vision problems while using Ethored-TX Tablet 10's, consult your doctor immediately.

Do not take Ethored-TX Tablet 10's if you are allergic to Tranexamic acid, Etamsylate, and any other ingredients present in it. Do not take this medicine if you have a history of kidney failure, thrombosis (formation of blood clots in the blood vessels), disseminated intravascular coagulation (a disease where blood clots form throughout your body), porphyria (a group of inherited blood disorders), and seizures (fits). Inform your doctor if you are taking birth control pills or fibrinolytic agents (medicines that dissolve blood clots). Also, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
