General information

Class/mechanism: Long-acting dosage form of Octreotide (Sandostatin). The LAR depot formulation consists of octreotide contained within biodegradable glucose star polymer microspheres; octreotide is gradually released as the polymer degrades via hydrolysis. Octreotide (Sandostatin) is a long-acting octapeptide that suppresses multiple hormones and has physiologic actions similar to somatostatin. It suppresses LH response to GnRH, reduces splanchnic blood flow, and inhibits release of serotonin, gastrin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, secretin, motilin, pancreatic polypeptide, growth hormone, IGF-I (somatomedin C), glucagon, insulin, and TSH.[1][2][3]
