tranexamic acid and Hyperpigmentation

tranexamic acid has been researched along with Hyperpigmentation in 25 studies

Tranexamic Acid: Antifibrinolytic hemostatic used in severe hemorrhage.

Hyperpigmentation: Excessive pigmentation of the skin, usually as a result of increased epidermal or dermal melanin pigmentation, hypermelanosis. Hyperpigmentation can be localized or generalized. The condition may arise from exposure to light, chemicals or other substances, or from a primary metabolic imbalance.
