�� Key Features

·         Active Ingredient: Vasopressin (commonly available as 20 IU per 1 ml ampoule).

·         Form: Sterile injectable ampoule.

·         Administration: Administered by a healthcare professional via injection/infusion as directed by a doctor.

·         Prescription: Required (this is a hospital‑use cardiovascular/critical care medication).

�� Typical Uses

VPRESS (Vasopressin Injection) is used for:

·         Management of diabetes insipidus — a condition of excessive urination due to lack of antidiuretic hormone.

·         Control of bleeding from esophageal varices — especially in patients with liver disease.

·         Support in hypotensive states / vasodilatory shock — to help raise blood pressure when fluids and other vasopressors are insufficient.

It works by binding to vasopressin receptors, promoting vasoconstriction (narrowing of blood vessels) and reducing urine output by increasing water reabsorption in the kidneys.

⚠️ Important Safety & Notes

·         Clinical Use Only: Administered by qualified medical professionals in a hospital/critical care environment.

·         Possible Side Effects: May include headache, nausea, heart rate changes, low sodium levels (hyponatremia), injection site reactions, or circulatory issues — monitor under supervision.

·         Storage: Store as per label/medical guidance (often refrigerated between 2–8 °C and protected from light).

·         Not for Self‑Administration: This is not suitable for home use without clinical oversight.
