I am on Sandostatin LAR 20 mg. I have been on that since 2009 and have been receiving it every 4 weeks. It has worked wonders for my flushing - stopped it dead in its tracks. It helps to control the diarrhea somewhat, however, now that I have been on the Sandsostatin so long, I have found that at the end of my 3rd week of the shot that I don't do as well. I experience more diarrhea, so much so that we have decided to have me begin getting the same shot dosage but at a 3 week interval to see if it helps better with the diarrhea. I will begin that this month. I use Immodium to help with diarrhea symptoms.
