First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether giving tranexamic acid before a C-section can reduce the risk of severe postpartum hemorrhage. Researchers will enroll 88 pregnant women with risk factors like previous C-section, twins, or anemia. Half will receive the drug, half a placebo, and blood loss will be measured for 24 hours after delivery.

Active substance

tranexamic acid

What this could lead to
