"I used this drug to help with excessive period bleeding. 2 days later, I was rushed to the ER for a possible TIA (mini stroke). Symptoms: couldn’t see, headache, couldn’t speak, couldn’t read. This lasted for about 3 hours. Had to stay overnight in the ICU. Had a CT scan and all sorts of tests done to check for blood clots, etc. Completely freaked me out."

"I was recommended this tablet a week ago, and all it's done is made the bleeding worse. Going back to the doc tomorrow. I fear something is terribly wrong. Wish I had the positive experiences being shared."

"I have been having massive period pains for about a month after my miscarriage, been on tranexemic, and still didn't respond. I took the Cyklokapron because a long time ago when I stopped my contraceptive, it kicked in just after 2 days. OOOOOOOOOH LORD, I was starting to go insane with this madness and sickness, and now all that has been resolved by this medication. Thank you to my doctor, Naidoo, in Langa, Cape Town, for the prescription, you awesome doctor."

"I am using these 2 tablets every 6 hours, and it has slowed down the bleeding but not completely gone yet. The only side effect I noticed and still have, which is horrible, is stomach cramps and diarrhea."

"I am 49 years young and was prescribed this med for long-lasting, extremely heavy, clotting periods. At my wit's end, the doctor prescribed 2 tabs (TDS) 3x daily. It has been 24 hours now, what an improvement! I noticed improvement overnight. I went from using super pads every 2 hours to a panty liner today. No side effects (as yet). What a relief! I won't use it all the time, but it's good to have on hand when needed."
