Tranexamic Acid: Mechanism of Action - TXA is an anti-fibrinolytic - TXA is a synthetic analog of the amino acid lysine - TXA blocks lysine binding sites on plasminogen which is essential for binding fibrin → preventing activation of plasminogen to plasmin - TXA ultimately reduces fibrinolysis stabilizes the fibrin-rich clot #Tranexamic #Acid #pathophysiology #hematology #TXA
