  • Octreotide + BromocriptineDose adjustment of bromocriptine may be necessary when used concomitantly with octreotide.
  • Octreotide + Bromocriptine MesylateConcomitant use in acromegalic patients increases bromocriptine plasma levels (AUC increased approximately 38%).
  • Octreotide + CyclosporineOctreotide decreases cyclosporine bioavailability; dose adjustment of cyclosporine may be necessary.
  • Octreotide + DigoxinOctreotide decreases digoxin peak exposure; careful assessment of clinical response is needed due to narrow therapeutic
  • Octreotide + EsomeprazoleConcomitant administration decreases bioavailability of octreotide; may require increased octreotide dose.
  • Octreotide + GlipizideMay increase glucose-lowering effect of glipizide and susceptibility to hypoglycemia; monitor closely.
