Tranexamic acid

Tranexamic acid (commonly marketed as Cyclokapron) is often prescribed for excessive bleeding. It is an antifibrinolytic that competitively inhibits the activation of plasminogen to plasmin.

Tranexamic acid is commonly used to treat excessive menstrual bleeding, even to the point of menorrhagia. It is also useful in the treatment of haemophilia.
