Hi
Ocreotide and Lanreotide are administered differently and some individuals may have distinct side effects and symptom and tumor control. But my husband so far has had no issues with receiving Lanreotide at Innova Fairfax, VA.
You should certainly ask your NET oncologist about this. Also I would suggest you reach out to the drug company Ipsen directly. We have found them to be very responsive.

@mimighosh I'm curious as to how your husband is currently reacting to the Lanreotide injections and what response the tumor had to the Ltide injections. I'm just beginning my injections. I haven't had mine yet but i think beginning in 10 days or so. Thanks and good luck to you guys.
