Basic Information

Mechanism Of Action

Gluone Forte Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Tranexamic Acid, L Glutathione Reduced and L Ascorbic acid. These medicines work by blocking the action of certain chemicals that cause pigmentation in the skin following exposure to UV rays.

Pharmacokinets

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.Glutathione (GSH) participates in leukotriene synthesis and is a cofactor for the enzyme glutathione peroxidase. It also plays a role in the hepatic biotransformation and detoxification process; it acts as a hydrophilic molecule that is added to other lipophilic toxins or wastes prior to entering biliary excretion.Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) dissociates at physiological pH to form ascorbate, the redox state of the vitamin which is found most abundantly in cells [1]. It is well known that ascorbate acts physiologically as a reductant and enzyme cofactor.

Side Effects

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
