Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • PPH defined as blood loss ≥500 cc

    measured by pads placed under women buttocks

    the first 24hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • severe PPH (>1000 cc), .

    first 24 hours

Study Arms (2)

tanexamic acid and Ethamsylate

EXPERIMENTAL

10 ml of the study drugs (1 gm Tranexamic acid and 1 gm Ethamsylate ) slowly (over 30-60 sec ) in the 2 minutes after birth

Drug: Tranexamic Acid and Ethamsylate

placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

10 ml normal saline will be administered intravenously just after birth

Drug: Tranexamic Acid and Ethamsylate

Interventions

The intervention will be the intravenous administration of 10 ml blinded vial of the study drugs (either 1 gmTranexamic acid and 1 gm Ethamsylate or placebo according to randomization group) slowly (over 30-60 sec ) in the 2 minutes after birth and the routine prophylactic oxytocin and after the cord has been clamped , all generally by the anesthesiologist or obstetrician then a pad will be placed under women buttocks then weighting the pads to allow objective measurement of blood loss.
