• Octreotide (Octreotide)
- Octreotide is the acetate salt of a cyclic octapeptide. It is a long-acting octapeptide with pharmacologic properties mimicking those of the natural hormone somatostatin. Indication: For treatment of acromegaly and reduction of side effects from cancer chemotherapy Octreotide exerts pharmacologic actions similar to the natural hormone, somatostatin. It is an even more potent inhibitor of growth hormone, glucagon, and insulin than somatostatin. Like somatostatin, it also suppresses leuteinizing...

• Sandostatin LAR Depot
- This medication is a long-acting form of octreotide. Octreotide is used to treat severe watery diarrhea and sudden reddening of the face and neck caused by certain types of tumors (e.g., carcinoid tumors , vasoactive intestinal peptide tumors) that are found usually in the intestines and pancreas . The symptoms occur when these tumors make too much of certain natural substances (hormones). This medication works by blocking the production of these hormones. By decreasing watery diarrhea,...
• Sandostatin LAR
- Octreotide is a man-made (synthetic) version of a naturally occurring hormone known as somatostatin . Octreotide is used to treat severe diarrhea, flushing, and other symptoms that occur with certain cancers of the intestine. It works by slowing down the release of substances that cause diarrhea and flushing and by increasing water absorption. Octreotide also reduces the amount of growth hormone in the body, and so it is also used to treat acromegaly , a condition associated with...
