Etamsylate is a synthetic hemostatic agent used to reduce blood loss in conditions of capillary fragility or abnormal bleeding. It is most often used to manage perioperative bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, and sometimes in the treatment of intracranial hemorrhage. It is not universally approved worldwide but is still in use in various countries, although its efficacy is debated in some indications.
