Derma Radia Tablet is an anti-fibrinolytic. It works by preventing the breakdown of clots which leads to the stoppage of bleeding. This medicine must be taken in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. You should not take it if you have any known allergy to this medicine.
Tranexamic acid is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid lysine and binds the 5 lysine binding sites on plasminogen. This inhibits plasmin formation and displaces plasminogen from the fibrin surface. It may also directly inhibit plasmin and partially inhibit fibrinogenolysis at higher concentrations
Tranexamic acid 1 g was given intravenously to three healthy volunteers. Plasma concentrations decayed in three monoexponential phases. Most elimination took place during the first eight hours, giving an apparent elimination half-life of approximately two hours. Plasma clearance ranged between 110-116 ml/min.
