Here is a video from the Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine that explains how Tranexamic Acid works.

Warning - it cost over $100 US dollars. Also, it is a specialty item which only 1 area medical lab could make for me. Fortunately, my bleeding started on a weeknight, so the oral surgeon and the medical lab were both open the next morning.

I know almost nothing about this subject, so take what follows as being just what I looked up out of interest the other day.

I looked it up here and found a chemist shop sells Cyklokapron 500mg Tablets 100 - (Tranexamic Acid) for $40 obviously this isn't for topical. So I looked around and found:

https://www.nhs.uk/medicines/tranexamic-acid/how-and-when-to-take-tranexamic-acid/

which also mentions oral taking ... so I wonder if there are other forms which are beneficial / substitutable for your purpose.

It would seem that for those of us on anticoagulation therapy that's perhaps not ideal and may even be a contra-indication (so I checked that too)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

HTH
