Ornipressin (omithine-8-vasopressin, POR-8) is the most commonly used vasopressin analogue in Germany, Switzerland, New Zealand and Australia. While it has minimal antidiuretic activity whilst maintaining equipotent vasoconstrictor activity as the natural hormone, vasoprssin.

Background | Ornipressin is a potent vasoconstrictor agent, and plasma volume expansion with albumin to improve effective arterial blood volume. In vitro: Ornipressin produces a profound vasoconstrictive effect by contracting smooth-muscle cells in the vascular bed, especially in capillaries, small arterioles and venules. Ornipressin is most commonly used to treat bleeding oesophageal varices. >> Read More |
