Meccanismo d'azione
Ganirelix
Ganirelix competitively and reversibly binds the pituitary GnRH receptor, rapidly suppressing LH (and, less so, FSH) release — without the initial hormone 'flare' of GnRH agonists.
Icatibant
Icatibant competitively blocks the bradykinin B2 receptor. Because bradykinin mediates the vascular permeability, swelling and pain typical of hereditary angioedema, the blockade interrupts the acute attack.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Ganirelix and Icatibant?
- Ganirelix is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Icatibant is classified as "Ricerca (altro)". Ganirelix: Ganirelix is a synthetic decapeptide and GnRH antagonist. In assisted reproduction (IVF) it prevents the premature LH surge during controlled ovarian stimulation. Icatibant: Icatibant is a synthetic decapeptide and selective antagonist of the bradykinin B2 receptor. It is approved to treat acute attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE). This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Ganirelix or Icatibant?
- The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Ganirelix and "RCT sull'uomo" for Icatibant. 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 Ganirelix and Icatibant in Germany and the United States?
- Germania: Ganirelix — Su prescrizione, Icatibant — Su prescrizione. Stati Uniti: Ganirelix — Su prescrizione, Icatibant — Su prescrizione. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
