Meccanismo d'azione
Goserelin
As a GnRH agonist, goserelin binds to the GnRH receptors of the pituitary gland. Initial stimulation transiently raises luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). With continuous receptor occupancy, however, the receptors become desensitized and down-regulated, which reduces LH and FSH secretion and consequently the production of testosterone or estrogen. This mechanistic relationship is documented in the pharmacological literature.
Terlipressin
Terlipressin is slowly converted in the body to lysine-vasopressin by cleavage of the three N-terminal glycyl residues (reservoir effect) and activates V1 receptors. The splanchnic vasoconstriction improves renal perfusion in hepatorenal syndrome.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Goserelin and Terlipressin?
- Goserelin is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Terlipressin is classified as "Ricerca (altro)". Goserelin: Goserelin is a synthetic decapeptide and an agonist of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). The medical literature describes it as a hormonal agent that suppresses the release of sex hormones through sustained receptor stimulation. Regulatory-approved indications include prostate cancer, advanced breast cancer, endometriosis, and endometrial thinning, among others. Terlipressin: Terlipressin is a 12-amino-acid vasopressin analog and prodrug of lysine-vasopressin. As a V1 receptor agonist it is vasoconstrictive and is approved for hepatorenal syndrome (FDA 2022, Terlivaz). This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Goserelin or Terlipressin?
- The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Goserelin and "RCT sull'uomo" for Terlipressin. 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 Goserelin and Terlipressin in Germany and the United States?
- Germania: Goserelin — Su prescrizione, Terlipressin — Su prescrizione. Stati Uniti: Goserelin — Su prescrizione, Terlipressin — Su prescrizione. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
