Meccanismo d'azione
Carbetocin
Carbetocin is an oxytocin receptor agonist with prolonged duration. It triggers a sustained contraction of the uterus after birth, preventing atonic hemorrhage — unlike oxytocin, without a multi-hour infusion.
Plecanatid
Plecanatide is structurally analogous to the body's own uroguanylin and, like it, activates the GC-C receptor at the gut surface, raising cGMP and fluid secretion. Its pH-dependent activity shifts the effect toward the proximal small intestine.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Carbetocin and Plecanatid?
- Carbetocin is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Plecanatid is classified as "Ricerca (altro)". Carbetocin: Carbetocin is a long-acting synthetic oxytocin analog (half-life ~40 minutes). It prevents postpartum hemorrhage as a single injection. Approved in Canada and the UK among others, NOT in the US. Plecanatid: Plecanatide is a 16-amino-acid analog of the body's own uroguanylin and a guanylate cyclase-C (GC-C) agonist. It is approved for chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) and IBS with constipation (IBS-C). This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Carbetocin or Plecanatid?
- The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Carbetocin and "RCT sull'uomo" for Plecanatid. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of Carbetocin and Plecanatid in Germany and the United States?
- Germania: Carbetocin — Su prescrizione, Plecanatid — Non approvato. Stati Uniti: Carbetocin — Non approvato, Plecanatid — Su prescrizione. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
