Evana Heavy Period Relief - 18 Tablets

Buy Evana Heavy Period Relief

Evana Heavy Period Relief helps to break the cycle of heavy, disruptive periods. The medication can reduce heavy bleeding by up to 60%.

How Evana Heavy Period Relief works

Evana Heavy Period Relief contains the active ingredient tranexamic acid, which belongs to a group of medicines called antifibrinolytics.

When you bleed, your body forms clots or plugs as part of the healing process. Evana Heavy Period Relief helps these plugs to stay in place and reduces the amount of blood you lose during your period.

Directions

Always take Evana Heavy Period Relief exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you.

This medication should only be taken on days when your period is heavy. Do not take the tablets before your period has started, as it will not work properly.

Do not take Evana Heavy Period Relief for more than 4 days during each of your periods.

Swallow the tablets whole with water. Do not crush or chew them.

2 tablets should be taken 3 times a day for up to 4 days. If your bleeding doesn’t reduce, you can take an additional 2 tablets at night. When your bleeding lessens, you should reduce the number of tablets.
