About Praxamic Tablet

Praxamic Tablet is used in the treatment of hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmentation is a condition where skin colour appears uneven due to the formation of patches because of the concentration of melanin. Hyperpigmentation can include sunspots, retinopathy (an eye disease), age spots, melasma or chloasma.

Praxamic Tablet contains proanthocyanidin and tranexamic acid. Praxamic Tablet functions by reducing the concentration of the melanin deposits, thereby making the patches appear lighter. It also helps in rejuvenating and brightening the skin and restoring it to its normal complexion.

In some cases, Praxamic Tablet may cause common side effects such as headache, sinusitis, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, body pain, fatigue, a stuffy nose and dizziness.

Uses of Praxamic Tablet

Treatment of Hyperpigmentation.

Medicinal Benefits

Praxamic Tablet contains proanthocyanidin and tranexamic acid. It is used to treat pigmentation by restoring the normal colour of the skin Proanthocyanidin inhibits the activity of melanocytes (melanin-producing skin cells) and directly decreases melanin concentration by reducing the activity of the enzyme tyrosinase which is responsible for melanin synthesis. It also promotes collagen (a major skin protein) synthesis, thereby improving skin quality and evenness of complexion. Tranexamic acid is an antifibrinolytic (prevents dissolution of fibrin, a major blood component required for the normal clotting of blood) that reduces pigmentation and protects skin from UV radiation.
