Description
Transino White C Clear — 120 Tablets, 30-Day Supply
Overview
Transino White C Clear is made by Daiichi Sankyo Healthcare and is sold in Japanese pharmacies as a 第3類医薬品 — a Class-3 over-the-counter medicine, not as a food supplement. That classification is the most important thing on this page: it means the six amounts below are a registered dose, that the product carries approved indications printed on the box, and that some countries treat it differently from a vitamin tablet at the border.
The formula pairs L-cysteine 240 mg with vitamin C 1000 mg, natural vitamin E, and vitamins B2, B6 and B3, taken as two tablets twice a day. The pack in stock is the 120-tablet size, which is thirty days at that schedule.

Who Is This For?
- People who want the L-cysteine and vitamin C combination in the strength Japanese pharmacies sell it
- Anyone whose concern is uneven tone from sun exposure, freckles or post-inflammatory marks, and who wants an oral product alongside topical care
- People who prefer a registered medicine with printed indications over a supplement with marketing copy
- Not for anyone looking for tranexamic acid — that is Transino II
- Not for children, and not a substitute for medical advice on melasma or any diagnosed pigmentary condition
How to Use
- Take two tablets with water.
- Take two more tablets later in the day, morning and evening being the usual split.
- Swallow whole; the tablets are uncoated and taste sharply of vitamin C if chewed.
- Read the Japanese package insert in the box before the first dose.
- If you take prescription medicines or are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask a doctor or pharmacist first.
Frequency: 4 tablets a day (2 × twice daily). One 120-tablet pack is 30 days.
Full Ingredients
Active ingredients per 4 tablets (one day):
- Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) — 1000 mg
- L-cysteine — 240 mg
- d-alpha-tocopherol succinate (natural vitamin E) — 50 mg
- Riboflavin (vitamin B2) — 6 mg
- Pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6) — 12 mg
- Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) — 60 mg
These are the amounts Daiichi Sankyo registers per four tablets, which is the full daily dose: two tablets, twice a day.
Excipients are printed on the Japanese package insert inside the box. Because this is a registered medicine rather than a cosmetic, the insert is the legal document and travels with the product.
Cautions
- This is a Japanese over-the-counter medicine. Follow the dose on the insert and do not exceed it.
- Ask a doctor, dentist or pharmacist before use if you are under treatment, pregnant, breastfeeding, or have had an allergic reaction to any medicine.
- Stop and seek advice if a rash, redness, itching, nausea, vomiting or stomach pain appears.
- Vitamin C in this quantity can loosen stools; that is dose-related and not an allergy.
- Vitamin B2 turns urine bright yellow. This is harmless and expected.
- Do not use it alongside another high-dose vitamin C or L-cysteine product without advice.
- Personal-import rules for over-the-counter medicines vary by country. Check yours before ordering.
- Keep out of reach of children. Store below 30 °C, away from damp and direct sun.

FAQ
Is Transino White C Clear the same thing as Transino II?
No, and this is the most common mix-up. Transino II contains tranexamic acid and is indicated for melasma; it is a Class-1 medicine sold only with a pharmacist's involvement. White C Clear contains no tranexamic acid. Its actives are L-cysteine and vitamin C.
How many tablets a day, and how long does one box last?
Two tablets twice a day, so four a day. Our pack holds 120 tablets, which is thirty days. If you have seen "six tablets a day" associated with the Transino name, that is the schedule of the older Transino White C, a different product.
What does the Japanese box say it is for?
Three approved indications are printed on it: relief of pigmentation from spots, freckles, sunburn and rash; vitamin C supplementation during physical fatigue, pregnancy and lactation, convalescence and older age; and prevention of bleeding from the gums and nosebleeds.
Can I take it with other vitamin C products?
1000 mg a day is already a substantial dose. Adding another high-dose vitamin C product on top is not made safer by both being sold over the counter, and excess vitamin C is a common cause of loose stools. If you take prescription medicines, ask your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Is a Japanese OTC medicine allowed into my country?
That depends entirely on where you are, and we cannot answer it for you. Personal-import rules for over-the-counter medicines differ from those for supplements and cosmetics. Please check your national customs and medicines-agency guidance before ordering.
