Haima 1000 mg 12 sachets help reduce the intensity and duration of heavy periods. Thanks to tranexamic acid, it acts directly on the bleeding mechanism to improve menstrual comfort and limit discharge in women with regular cycles.
When periods become particularly heavy, they can quickly have an impact on everyday life. You may feel unusually tired, have to change your protection very frequently, or be worried about leaks. In this context, Haima can be used to help control these episodes, provided your cycles remain regular, between 21 and 35 days, with little variation.
Haima acts as a menstrual flow regulator. During menstruation, the body naturally forms clots to limit blood loss. Sometimes, these clots dissolve too quickly. Haima intervenes at this precise point, slowing down this mechanism, thereby reducing the abundance of bleeding and limiting its duration.
To better understand, imagine a water leak that we try to contain with small dams. If these dams disappear too quickly, the water flows further. The tranexamic acid in Haima acts as a reinforcement that stabilizes these natural dams, helping to promote menstrual comfort and better control the flow.
This treatment is intended for women and teenagers over the age of 15 with regular cycles. Before using it, it's important to check that your situation corresponds to this type of heavy menstrual flow. For example, if you have to use double protection or change your protection very frequently, this may be a warning sign.
In practice, this type of treatment can help you feel more serene during your period. By reducing the intensity of bleeding, Haima helps to improve quality of life without disrupting the natural functioning of the cycle.
In addition, if you experience associated pain, you may consider taking Spasfon Douleurs Spasmodiques 80 mg, which acts on uterine contractions. This combination acts on both the flow and the pain, for a more comprehensive approach.
The recommended dose for adults and teenagers aged 15 and over is 1 sachet, to be taken 3 times a day, for a maximum of 4 days. In the case of very heavy flow, the dose can be adjusted up to a maximum of 4 sachets a day, with an interval of 6 to 8 hours between each dose.
Coated granules are taken orally with a glass of water. Treatment should be started as soon as menstruation begins.

Presentation :
Box of 12 sachets. Available at the best price from our online pharmacy.
To optimize the effectiveness of your treatment, start taking Haima at the first signs of menstruation, without waiting for the flow to become too heavy. You should also monitor the evolution of your cycles over several months. If you notice any unusual changes (irregularity, intense pain, bleeding outside your period), a medical check-up is essential to adapt your treatment.
How do I know if my periods are too heavy?
If you have to change your pads very frequently, or use a double pad to avoid leakage, this may indicate heavy periods.
Can I use this medication if my cycles are irregular?
No, this treatment is reserved for regular cycles. In the event of irregularity, medical advice should be sought.
How long can I take this treatment?
The maximum duration is 4 days per cycle, during menstruation only.

Ce médicament limite la durée et l'intensité des saignements en ralentissant la destruction naturelle des caillots qui se forment lors d'une hémorragie.
Il est utilisé pour diminuer les règles anormalement abondantes (ménorragies).
Les prix mentionnés ne tiennent pas compte des « honoraires de dispensation » du pharmacien.

| Acide tranexamique | 1000 mg |
| Saccharose | 450 mg |
Ce médicament est destiné aux femmes souffrant de règles abondantes mais dont les cycles sont réguliers. En effet, un saignement important et inhabituel peut traduire l'existence d'une maladie génitale nécessitant un diagnostic médical rapide.
De plus, un avis médical est nécessaire en cas d'usage prolongé, d'utilisation d'un contraceptif (pilule, anneau vaginal, patch) contenant un estrogène et un progestatif, d'antécédent personnel ou familial d'accident thromboemboembolique ou de coagulation intravasculaire disséminée.
Conducteur : ce médicament peut être responsable de vertiges.
Ce médicament n'a pas d'indication pendant la grossesse.
Ce médicament passe dans le lait maternel : néanmoins, l'allaitement est possible pendant le traitement si besoin.
Les granulés doivent être avalés avec un verre d'eau.
Une adaptation de la posologie est nécessaire en cas d'insuffisance rénale.
Fréquents (1 à 10 % des patientes) : vertiges, malaise, nausées, vomissements, diarrhée, douleurs abdominales.
Peu fréquents (0,1 à 1 % des patientes) : réaction allergique cutanée.
Fréquence indéterminée : convulsions, changement de vision des couleurs, évènement thromboembolique.
Accident qui résulte de l'obstruction (embolie) d'un vaisseau sanguin par un caillot (thrombus).
Le vaisseau peut être une artère : il s'agit alors d'une embolie artérielle, qui provoque une ischémie (privation de sang oxygène) dans la région que cette artère irriguait. Une ischémie grave aboutit à la mort des tissus privés d'oxygène : l'infarctus. Heureusement, dans de nombreux cas, une artère voisine permet d'éviter l'infarctus en apportant du sang oxygéné dans la région victime de l'ischémie.
Le cœur est irrigué par les artères coronaires qui ont la propriété d'être peu reliées entre elles, ce qui explique la gravité d'un accident thromboembolique coronarien : une partie du muscle cardiaque, le myocarde, est détruite (infarctus du myocarde).
L'obstruction d'une veine est moins grave, car les veines assurent le retour du sang chargé de gaz carbonique vers le cœur. L'obstruction d'une veine est généralement appelée thrombophlébite. La gravité d'une thrombophlébite, ou phlébite, tient à la possibilité pour un caillot de se détacher de la veine et d'être emporté par le sang veineux jusqu'au coeur. Après avoir traversé l'oreillette droite et le ventricule droit, ce caillot va pénétrer dans une artère pulmonaire et obstruer un vaisseau sanguin, provoquant une embolie pulmonaire et un infarctus pulmonaire.
Affection guérie ou toujours en évolution. L'antécédent peut être personnel ou familial. Les antécédents constituent l'histoire de la santé d'une personne.
Contrairement à ce qu'indique son nom, c'est une hémorragie qui succède à la formation de caillots multiples dans l'ensemble des vaisseaux de l'organisme, survenant notamment lors d'une opération, d'une infection ou de certaines maladies du sang.
Contractions involontaires limitées à quelques muscles ou généralisées à tout le corps. Elles sont dues à une souffrance ou à une stimulation excessive du cerveau : fièvre, intoxication, manque d'oxygène, lésion du cerveau. Les convulsions peuvent être dues à une crise d'épilepsie ou à une fièvre élevée chez le jeune enfant.
Action d'identifier une maladie avec précision.
Le sens médical strict de diarrhée est « émission de selles trop fréquentes et trop abondantes ». En fait, le sens commun assimile la diarrhée à la notion de selles liquides et fréquentes. Normalement, les selles sont pâteuses, mais l'émission de selles liquides ou à peine formées, sans douleur ou trouble particulier associé, n'est pas pathologique. On peut parler de diarrhée lorsque les émissions de selles liquides se répètent dans la journée, et que les besoins sont impérieux ou douloureux.
Beaucoup de médicaments peuvent accélérer le transit intestinal et rendre les selles plus liquides, sans que cet effet indésirable soit réellement préoccupant.
Les antibiotiques peuvent altérer la flore digestive, indispensable à la digestion, et provoquer des diarrhées plus ou moins gênantes mais bénignes. L'effet apparaît immédiatement ou après quelques jours de traitement. Une forme de diarrhée grave et exceptionnelle, la colite pseudomembraneuse, peut être observée après un traitement antibiotique ; cette affection se traduit par l'émission de glaires et de fausses membranes (ressemblant à des lambeaux de peau) associées à des douleurs abdominales ; une constipation peut remplacer la diarrhée initiale. La colite pseudomembraneuse peut survenir plusieurs jours après l'arrêt du traitement antibiotique et nécessite un avis médical urgent.

Famille d'hormones stimulant les organes sexuels féminins (utérus et glandes mammaires essentiellement). On écrit aussi œstrogène.
La fréquence d'un effet indésirable est décrite dans les documents officiels de la manière suivante :
Perte de sang à partir d'une artère ou d'une veine. Une hémorragie peut être externe, mais également interne et passer inaperçue.
Incapacité des reins à éliminer les déchets ou les substances médicamenteuses. Une insuffisance rénale avancée ne se traduit pas forcément par une diminution de la quantité d'urine éliminée. Seuls une prise de sang et le dosage de la créatinine peuvent révéler cette maladie.
Quantité et répartition de la dose d'un médicament en fonction de l'âge, du poids et de l'état général du malade.
Substance dont l'action est proche de celle de la progestérone.
Réaction due à l'hypersensibilité de l'organisme à un médicament. Les réactions allergiques peuvent prendre des aspects très variés : urticaire, œdème de Quincke, eczéma, éruption de boutons rappelant la rougeole, etc. Le choc anaphylactique est une réaction allergique généralisée qui provoque un malaise par chute brutale de la tension artérielle.

Le saccharose est la substance qui compose le sucre de cuisine et le sucre industriel que l'on retrouve dans les biscuits, les gâteaux, les sucreries et les boissons sucrées (une bouteille d'un litre et demi de soda contient l'équivalent de trente morceaux de sucre). Certaines personnes sont intolérantes au fructose issu de la digestion du saccharose et souffrent alors de ballonnements et de diarrhée. Certains médicaments contiennent du saccharose comme excipient (composant sans activité thérapeutique).
