Giapreza! Angiotensin II Drip

Generally, I like to wait a little before I add a new page to the ICU drip flip book. This is mainly because medications come and go in the ICU remember xigris?


Giapreza was approved in 2017 for GIAPREZA (angiotensin II) was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a vasoconstrictor indicated to increase blood pressure in adults with septic or other distributive shock.


GIAPREZA mimics the body's endogenous angiotensin II peptide. This peptide is central to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which regulates blood pressure.


You can read about it here - Do you use it in your ICU? or are there meds you use that are not in the book? Please comment below.
