Hi, I have suffered with angioedema for 13 years and I have now been prescribed with Tranexamic Acid to try. Is there anyone else out there who has the same condition and has been prescribed with this drug? If so, are you experiencing any side affects such as aching sore joints, constant tiredness and generally 'not quite yourself'? I would really appreciate some much needed support on this drug and its side affects. Thank you............ :?

    forgot to say the max dose for tranexamic is 9 x 500mg a day  i took them  3 x 3  a day morning noon and night      zyrtec i in morning i at night  but for me the tranexamic worked  wonders on one occasion when all antihistimne failed  to make any difference    especially with the swelling

      Hello,

      I'm curious to see how you are doing? I've lived the last several months in constant flare up...it's horrible and live on steroids.

      How are you feeling?

      Hello,

      I am so sorry to hear that. I am doing a lot better. I started taking the tranexamic acid and it did take the swollen down but for some reason it turned by skin really dark. It started to scare me so I stop taking it. I am now taking food grade hydrogen peroxide. It has worked wonders. Please do your research on this product if you want to try it and let me know what you think
