Carbetocin is an oxytocin analogue with modifications in the terminal Cysteine residue and in the disulphur bridge betwen Cys1 and Cys6.

Carbetocin lacks cysteine residue in position 1, the disulphur has been substituted by a thioether linkage and the phenolic alcohol is blocked by a methyl ether.

Oxytocin is a hormone used to help start or continue labor and to control bleeding after delivery. It is also sometimes used to help milk secretion in breast-feeding.

Carbetocin has similar uses, though it is focused to the control of bleeding after delivery. Carbetocin is usually focused to veterinary medicine.
