Lypressin

Vasopressin analog for central diabetes insipidus. Synthetic antidiuretic hormone with vasoconstrictive properties for polyuria and polydipsia management in neurohypophyseal disorders.

Lypressin is a synthetic octapeptide analog of arginine vasopressin (AVP), a posterior pituitary hormone essential for water homeostasis. It differs from AVP only at position 8 (lysine instead of arginine), exhibiting potent antidiuretic activity with reduced pressor effects. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of diabetes insipidus (central and nephrogenic) and serves as a critical API for formulations requiring vasopressin receptor V2 selectivity.
