BioHack Track models Tranexamic Acid (Topical) at a half-life of 4 hours, so every dose you log is decayed against that curve and the app shows what is still circulating — not just what you typed.
Topical serum/cream; no reconstitution needed.
Store at room temperature.
Generally well tolerated topically; distinct from oral/injectable tranexamic acid, which carries real blood-clotting considerations — topical absorption is minimal but check with a doctor if already on blood thinners.
