What is the recommended dose of TXA to be infused?

The recommended dose of TXA (tranexamic acid) for infusion is 1 gram in 100 ml of intravenous fluid. This dosing is typically used in trauma scenarios where significant hemorrhage is present. Administering 1 gram helps to achieve the therapeutic effects of TXA, which is known to aid in clot stability and reduce blood loss by inhibiting fibrinolysis.

The choice of 100 ml for the infusion is also practical, as it ensures that the medication enters the circulation over a manageable period, allowing for better monitoring of the patient's response to treatment. A proper infusion rate is essential to minimize potential side effects and permit appropriate assessment of the clinical situation.

In contrast, other dosing options either exceed the recommended dose or involve larger volumes that may introduce complications such as fluid overload in unstable patients. Thus, the dosing of 1 gram in 100 ml balances effective treatment with patient safety, making it the appropriate choice for administering TXA in a tactical or trauma setting.
