Tranexamic acid to reduce blood loss during c-section
Treatments studied
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving a medicine called tranexamic acid before a cesarean section (c-section) can help reduce the amount of blood loss during the surgery. It may be an option for women having either a planned or unplanned c-section.

This trial studies whether tranexamic acid, a medicine that helps blood clot, can prevent postpartum hemorrhage (heavy bleeding after delivery) in people having a planned C-section or likely vaginal delivery after 34 weeks. It may help lower the risk of dangerous bleeding around the time of birth.
This trial tests whether giving a medicine called tranexamic acid before a planned C-section can help prevent dangerous heavy bleeding after birth. It is for pregnant women with low-risk pregnancies who are scheduled for a planned C-section.
This study compares two medications (tranexamic acid and oxytocin) given directly into the uterus during a planned cesarean section to see which works better at reducing blood loss. It is for women with a single, full-term pregnancy and no major health complications.
This study tests if giving tranexamic acid (a medicine that helps blood clot) before C-section can reduce bleeding during and after surgery. It may help women who have higher risks of bleeding during delivery.
This trial studies whether tranexamic acid can prevent heavy bleeding after a planned or urgent cesarean delivery in people with placenta previa. If you qualify, you may receive the study drug to help your body keep blood loss lower during and after surgery.
This study tests whether tranexamic acid, a drug that helps blood clot, can prevent heavy bleeding after a C-section in women who have certain risk factors. If you are at higher risk for postpartum hemorrhage, this trial may help you avoid dangerous blood loss.
