Prolactin and the Effect of Octreotide Acetate, a Long Acting Somatostatin Analogue, on Prolactin Secretion

Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2022
Trauma of the head causes important changes in serum prolactin levels. Usually somatostatin has an inhibitory effect on the hormones. We do not know much about the effect of somatostatin on prolactin secretion.
