About Cpressin P Injection 1 ml

Cpressin P Injection 1 ml belongs to the class of antidiuretic hormones. It is used to treat diabetes insipidus and to control bleeding from esophagal varices. It can also be used to increase blood pressure in adults with vasodilatory shock who remain hypotensive despite fluids and catecholamines. Diabetes insipidus is a rare form of diabetes, causing the production of large quantities of urine.

Cpressin P Injection 1 ml contains Vasopressin, a human-made form of Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone). When your body cannot produce enough Vasopressin, Cpressin P Injection 1 ml is used to replace it. It also helps treat diabetes insipidus (a rare form of diabetes causing the production of large quantities of urine) by increasing the amount of water reabsorption from the kidneys. Cpressin P Injection 1 ml helps to control bleeding from esophagal varices by increasing plasma levels of factor VIII activity in patients with bleeding disorders. Besides this, Vasopressin causes vasoconstriction by binding to V1 receptors on vascular smooth muscle. Thus, Vasopressin helps to increase blood pressure in adults with vasodilatory shock who remain hypotensive despite fluids and catecholamines.
