6-aminocaproicdosage

The dosage regimen for administering aminocaproic acid tablets is as follows: For the treatment of acute bleeding syndromes due to elevated fibrinolytic activity, it is suggested that 10 aminocaproic acid 500 mg tablets (5 g) be administered during the first hour of treatment, followed by a continuing rate of 2 aminocaproic acid 500 mg tablets (1 g) per hour. This method of treatment would ordinarily be continued for about 8 hours or until the bleeding situation has been controlled.
