Tetracosactide is a synthetic peptide, which corresponds to the first 24 amino acids of the naturally occurring hormone ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone). It stimulates the adrenal cortex to produce corticosteroids, mineralocorticoids, and, to a lesser extent, androgens.

| Chemical Structure |  |
| Explanation | Histrelin is a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist that is a potent inhibitor of production of testosterone (in men) and estrogen (in women) and is used predominantly to treat advanced prostate cancer. Histrelin is associated with a low rate of transient serum enzyme elevations during therapy, but has not been linked convincingly to cases of clinically apparent acute liver injury. |
