What Is Lysteda?
Lysteda (tranexamic acid) is a prescription medication used to manage heavy menstrual bleeding, also called menorrhagia. It works by inhibiting the breakdown of blood clots (fibrinolysis) at the uterine lining, thereby reducing the amount of blood lost during menstruation. With the right dose and ongoing monitoring, most patients experience a meaningful reduction in menstrual blood loss and improved quality of life during their periods.

Is Online Lysteda Treatment Right for You?
Lysteda is FDA-approved for the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia) in women who experience cyclical, heavy periods. Candidates are typically adult women who have had their condition assessed by a clinician and are not taking hormonal contraceptives that increase clotting risk.
Because Lysteda works through the coagulation pathway, a relevant personal or family history of thromboembolic events - such as deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or stroke - is an important safety consideration that the reviewing physician will evaluate before approving a refill.

Frequently asked questions
Lysteda contains tranexamic acid, an antifibrinolytic agent. During menstruation, the body releases plasminogen activators in the uterine lining that dissolve blood clots and increase bleeding. Lysteda blocks this process, allowing clots to remain intact and reducing the overall volume of menstrual blood loss.
The standard dose is two 650 mg tablets taken three times daily (1,300 mg per dose) for a maximum of five days during each menstrual period. Lysteda should only be taken during the days of heavy bleeding, not throughout the entire month.
Lysteda is not recommended for use in combination with hormonal contraceptives, particularly combined estrogen-progestin products, because both can increase the risk of blood clots. You should inform your physician of all medications you are currently taking before receiving a refill.
Common side effects include headache, sinus and nasal symptoms, back pain, abdominal pain, musculoskeletal pain, and anemia. Less commonly, some patients experience nausea or diarrhea. Contact your doctor right away if you experience any signs of a blood clot, such as leg swelling, chest pain, or vision changes.
Lysteda is not appropriate for people with a personal or family history of blood clots (deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or stroke), those with active thromboembolic disease, or those using hormonal contraceptives. A history of hypersensitivity to tranexamic acid is also a contraindication.
Clinical trials have shown that Lysteda reduces menstrual blood loss by approximately 40% compared to placebo. Many patients report a significant improvement in their ability to perform daily activities during their period.
