Medicinal Benefits:

Cpressin P Injection 1 ml contains Vasopressin, an antidiuretic (that controls fluid balance) hormone synthesized in the hypothalamus of the pituitary gland. When your body cannot produce enough Vasopressin, Cpressin P Injection 1 ml is used to replace it. It helps treat diabetes insipidus. (a rare form of diabetes causing the production of large quantities of urine). Vasopressin increases the amount of water absorbed back into your kidneys. Thus, it helps treat diabetes insipidus. Cpressin P Injection 1 ml increases plasma levels of factor VIII activity in patients with bleeding disorders. Thus, it helps to control bleeding from esophageal varices. 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.
