How it works

Sandostatin LAR 30mg Injection is a similar to somatostatin, a substance normally found in the human body which inhibits the effects of certain hormones such as growth hormone. It also lowers the bleeding from the food pipe by constricting (narrowing) the blood vessels.

Quick Tips

Sandostatin LAR 30mg Injection helps treat acromegaly and certain hormone-producing tumors of stomach, liver, and pancreas. It is given as an injection under the skin or into a vein. It may temporarily cause pain at the site of injection. You can relieve this by gently rubbing the site of injection for a few seconds afterwards. When used long term, your doctor may monitor your thyroid function, gallbladder function, liver function, and vitamin B12 levels regularly. Inform your doctor if you are taking medicines to control your blood pressure or if you are diabetic. Women who do not wish to conceive should practice an effective method for contraception while taking this medication.
