Tranex 500mg Tab (Tranexamic Acid) works by inhibiting the breakdown of blood clots (fibrinolysis). It achieves this by competitively binding to plasminogen, thus preventing the formation of plasmin, an enzyme responsible for clot dissolution. By maintaining clot stability, it helps control bleeding.
