About Taxamic-MF Tablet

Taxamic-MF Tablet is used to treat dysmenorrhea (period pain) and menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding). 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.

Taxamic-MF Tablet is a combination of Tranexamic acid and Mefenamic acid. Tranexamic acid helps the body's natural blood clotting process by preventing fibrin breakdown, which stops blood clot formation. Mefenamic acid works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain.

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. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

You are advised to take Taxamic-MF Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. Taxamic-MF Tablet can be taken with or without food. Do not crush, chew, or break it.

Avoid taking Taxamic-MF Tablet if you are allergic to it. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Taxamic-MF Tablet may cause dizziness, so drive with caution. Taxamic-MF Tablet should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established.
