Enteral absorption of octreotide [PDF]

open access: bronzeBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 1992
The somatostatin octapeptide‐analogue, octreotide, is absorbed as intact peptide from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. In situ absorption experiments in rats confirmed our recent intubation studies in human volunteers demonstrating that the peptide has preferential absorption sites in the small intestine.

A Decade of Octreotide [PDF]

open access: yesDigestion, 1999
complications following pancreatic surgery). Somatostatin analogues including octreotide have been shown to reduce pressure in the splanchnic circulation, an effect that was exploited in the management of variceal and nonvariceal hemorrhages. Despite a widespread therapeutic application, octreotide seems to be a safe drug free of major side effects ...
