How to Administer Sandostatin® LAR®

Administering Sandostatin LAR

With its slow-release pharmacokinetic profile compared to Sandostatin® Injection, Sandostatin LAR can be administered once a month instead of 3 times a day, which may lead to enhanced patient compliance. In addition, improvements such as a new prefilled vehicle syringe and redesigned needle size make mixing and administering Sandostatin LAR easier than ever.
