Carbetocin

Mechanism action of Carbetocin

Carbetocin binds to oxytocin receptors present on the smooth musculature of the uterus, resulting in rhythmic contractions of the uterus, increased frequency of existing contractions, and increased uterine tone. The oxytocin receptor content of the uterus is very low in the non-pregnant state, and increases during pregnancy, reaching a peak at the time of delivery.

  1. Carbetocin (trade name Duratocin) is an eight amino acid long analogue of oxytocin (a nonapeptide) with improved in vivo stability over oxytocin. Carbetocin primarily agonizes peripherally expressed oxytocin receptors. Carbetocin Acetate https://www.creative-peptides.com/product/carbetocin-acetate-item-10-101-42-24.html
