Ready. Set. Reach Target Map. Fast.
Rapidly stabilize MAP in a median of 5 minutes.
For septic or other distributive shock, act fast with GIAPREZA—the first and only vasopressor designed to regulate RAAS in your patients.1
MAP=mean arterial pressure;
RAAS=renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
Efficacy
A landmark trial
for distributive shock7
In the key findings of the Phase 3 study evaluating 321 patients with distributive shock who remained hypotensive despite fluid and vasopressor therapy, GIAPREZA8:
- Achieved and sustained target MAP fast
- Reduced doses of other vasopressors

Important Safety Information
Indication
GIAPREZA® (angiotensin II) increases blood pressure in adults with septic or other distributive shock.
Contraindications
None.
Warnings and Precautions
The safety of GIAPREZA was evaluated in 321 adults with septic or other distributive shock in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, ATHOS-3. There was a higher incidence of arterial and venous thrombotic and thromboembolic events in patients who received GIAPREZA compared to placebo-treated patients in the ATHOS-3 study (13% vs. 5%). The major imbalance was in deep venous thromboses. Use concurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis.
Adverse Reactions
The most common adverse reactions reported in greater than 10% of GIAPREZA-treated patients were thromboembolic events. Adverse reactions occurring in ≥4% of patients treated with GIAPREZA and ≥1.5% more often than placebo‑treated patients in the ATHOS-3 study were thromboembolic events (including deep vein thrombosis), thrombocytopenia, tachycardia, fungal infection, delirium, acidosis, hyperglycemia, and peripheral ischemia.
Drug Interactions
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors may increase response to GIAPREZA. Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) may reduce response to GIAPREZA.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA.
