Tranexamic Acid Versus Misoprostol to Reduce Blood Loss During and After Cesarean Section

Brief Summary The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two medicines, intravenous tranexamic acid and rectal misoprostol, for reducing blood loss in women undergoing cesarean section. The study will also compare how much hemoglobin (a measure of blood loss) decreases after surgery with each treatment. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Does intravenous tranexamic acid reduce the drop in hemoglobin more than rectal misoprostol after cesarean section? 2. Does intravenous tranexamic acid reduce blood loss during and within 2 hours after cesarean section more than rectal misoprostol? Researchers will randomly assign 214 women scheduled for cesarean section to receive either intravenous tranexamic acid or rectal misoprostol before surgery. All cesarean sections will be performed according to the hospital's standard procedures by experienced obstetricians. Participants will: i. Be randomly assigned to receive either intravenous tranexamic acid or rectal misoprostol before surgery. ii. Have their hemoglobin level measured before the cesarean section and again 2 hours after surgery. iii. Have blood loss measured during the operation and for 2 hours after surgery. iv. Have the duration of the operation recorded as part of the study. The results will help determine which treatment is more effective in reducing blood loss and preserving hemoglobin levels during and after cesarean section.
