Description
Terlipressin acetate is a novel synthetic long-acting vasopressin preparation. It is a kind of prodrug, which is inactive by itself. After the action of aminopeptidase in the body, after removing the three glycyl residues at its N-terminus, it slowly "releases" the active lysine vasopressin. Therefore, terlipressin acts as a reservoir that releases lysine vasopressin at a steady rate.
