Brief Summary:
In the Western world, liver cirrhosis is a significant issue. Acute variceal bleeding (AVB) is a considerable complication of cirrhosis associated with high mortality. Still, the combination of endoscopic variceal ligation and terlipressin-like treatment decreases the risks of rebleeding and mortality. This therapy with terlipressin usually was used for 72 hours. However, there are some studies demostrating that using terlipressin for 24 hours could control variceal bleeding with fewer side effects.
