About Stat-B Tablet

Stat-B Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat dysmenorrhea (period pain) and menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding). Besides this, Stat-B Tablet is also used to treat severe blood loss, swelling in various body parts, fever, inflammation, and migraine headache. Menstrual cramps, also known as dysmenorrhea, are characterized by cramps and pain during menstruation. Menorrhagia is a condition with abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding during menstruation/periods.

Stat-B Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Tranexamic acid (anti-fibrinolytic) and Mefenamic acid (NSAID). Tranexamic acid helps the body's natural blood clot process by preventing fibrin's breakdown, this stops fibrinolysis, a process that stops blood clot formation. Mefenamic acid works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain.

You are advised to take Stat-B Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, indigestion, heartburn, and headache. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Stat-B Tablet may cause dizziness, so drive with caution. Stat-B Tablet should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Stat-B Tablet as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness, it might also increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side-effects/interactions.

Directions for Use

Medicinal Benefits

Stat-B Tablet is a combination of two drugs, namely: Tranexamic acid and Mefenamic acid. Stat-B Tablet is used to treat abdominal pain, dysmenorrhea (period pain), and menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding). Additionally, Stat-B Tablet is also used to treat severe blood loss, swelling in various body parts, fever, inflammation, and migraine headache. Tranexamic acid is an anti-fibrinolytic agent that helps the body's natural blood clot process by preventing fibrin's breakdown, this stops fibrinolysis, a process that stops blood clot formation. Mefenamic acid is an NSAID that works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make other chemical prostaglandins. By blocking the COX enzyme's effect, lesser prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Together, Stat-B Tablet helps treat heavy bleeding and pains/cramps during periods.
