How do you have your patients take oral tranexamic acid? Is there any benefit to splitting the 650 mg tablet?

Pigmentary Disorders

You tranxemic acid orally. We've talked about in length in many of my talks. It's in the US, available as a 650 milligram dose, and I usually have patients split it bi d 325 in the morning or 325 at night. I like to split the dosing. I feel that that can be more compliant. And also I can monitor for those early side effects of headache, nausea and vomiting early on. Based on the dose and the frequency. Some people say you don't really have to split it, but that's what I do. And if you look at the asian studies, the doses were divided by D in most of the large papers, particularly from the Singapore group that published in the Blue Journal.
