Abstract

An oral composition containing tranexamic acid in which carvone is blended in an amount of 0.1 to 5% by weight and l-menthol may preferably be blended in an amount of 0.03 to 10% by weight. Carvone improves the bitterness inherent to the tranexamic acid-containing oral composition. The composition may preferably contain a mixed humectant of sorbitol and glycerin at a weight ratio of 1:9 to 6:4 and a binder, at least 60% by weight of the binder being an alkali metal salt of carboxymethyl cellulose.
