First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether spraying a powder made of tranexamic acid and sucralfate onto bleeding sites in the colon can lower the chance of rebleeding after standard treatment. About 60 people hospitalized for lower GI bleeding will take part. All receive usual care, and half also get the powder spray. Researchers will track rebleeding over 28 days.
