Acromegaly Medications

Acromegaly is a hormonal disorder caused by excess growth hormone, often due to a pituitary tumor. Treatment typically involves medications that reduce growth hormone production or block its effects, helping to alleviate symptoms and prevent complications associated with this condition.

Medications for Acromegaly

The primary generic medications used for acromegaly include octreotide, lanreotide, and bromocriptine. These drugs aim to control growth hormone levels and manage the symptoms associated with the disorder.
