Biological Activity
Terlipressin is a vasopressin analogue with potent vasoactive properties.
It is a highly selective vasopressin V1 receptor agonist.
It reduces splanchnic blood flow and portal pressure, thereby controlling acute variceal bleeding.
Terlipressin also exhibits anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects.
Pharmaceutical Applications
It is used for the treatment of gastrointestinal and genitourinary bleeding, such as esophageal variceal bleeding, gastric and duodenal ulcers, functional and other causes of uterine bleeding, bleeding during childbirth or miscarriage, etc.
