Brief Answer: Yes, sometimes Detailed Answer: How, Thanks for the query. Trapicmf contains tranexamic acid and mefenamic acid. Yes, sometimes it can cause nausea as side effect. But usually this will subside without need of medication. Avoid taking the tablet with empty stomach and better to take after food, this can prevent nausea to some extent. If nausea persists you can go for antiemetic and antacid combination tablets with your doctor's advice. Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer followup queries. If you are satisfied with the response, please give your review at the end of the discussion. Take care.

Brief Answer: No Detailed Answer: Hi, Trapicmf only gives symptomatic relief with its antifibrinolytic property. It will not influence menstrual flow in the next menstrual cycle. To avoid heavy bleeding in next menstrual cycle, the cause of the menorrhagia should be treated. Take care.

Brief Answer: Gastric disturbances Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for the query. Usually trapicmf is not adviced for long term usage. Once the bleeding gets controlled, you can stop these tablets. And can continue with the specific treatment for the cause of the problem. The possible side effects with trapicmf are: -Gastrointestinal disturbances like nausea, epigastric discomfort, pain abdomen, constipation, dyspepsia etc. -Hypotension, tachycardia, dizziness -Longterm usage with high doses can lead to anemia, gastric ulcers, thrombocytopenia etc. But usually regular dose for limited period of time may not cause severe side effects. Take care.
