Werkingsmechanisme
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.
Vasopressin
Vasopressin binds V1 receptors (vasoconstriction, raising vascular resistance) and V2 receptors (renal water reabsorption via aquaporin channels). This raises blood pressure and acts antidiuretically. Desmopressin is the V2-selective synthetic analog.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between Icatibant and Vasopressin?
- Icatibant is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Vasopressin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". 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). Vasopressin: Vasopressin (arginine vasopressin, antidiuretic hormone/ADH) is a cyclic nonapeptide hormone that regulates water balance and vascular tone. As Vasostrict it is approved to raise blood pressure in vasodilatory shock. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, Icatibant or Vasopressin?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Icatibant and "Humane RCT" for Vasopressin. 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 Icatibant and Vasopressin in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Icatibant — Op recept, Vasopressin — Op recept. Verenigde Staten: Icatibant — Op recept, Vasopressin — Op recept. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
