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.
Triptorelin
Triptorelin binds with high affinity to the GnRH receptor in the pituitary. After initial stimulation of LH and FSH secretion (flare phase, about 1-2 weeks), receptor desensitisation follows with consecutive gonadotropin suppression. This results in a reversible chemical castration: in men testosterone, in women oestrogen suppression to the postmenopausal range.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Carbetocin and Triptorelin?
- Carbetocin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Triptorelin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". 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. Triptorelin: Synthetic decapeptide GnRH agonist with increased affinity over native gonadotropin-releasing hormone. FDA- and EMA-approved since the 1980s for prostate cancer, endometriosis and precocious puberty. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Carbetocin or Triptorelin?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Carbetocin and "Humane RCT" for Triptorelin. 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 Triptorelin in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Carbetocin — Op recept, Triptorelin — Op recept. Verenigde Staten: Carbetocin — Niet goedgekeurd, Triptorelin — Op recept. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
