Werkingsmechanisme

Histrelin

Continuous GnRH-agonist stimulation downregulates and desensitises the pituitary GnRH receptors — after the initial rise, LH, FSH and the sex hormones fall persistently.

Octreotide

Octreotide is a cyclic octapeptide that selectively binds somatostatin-receptor subtypes SSTR2 and SSTR5. Via G-protein-coupled signalling, adenylyl cyclase is inhibited, reducing the secretion of multiple hormones (growth hormone, IGF-1, glucagon, insulin, VIP, serotonin). Structural stabilisation via a disulfide bridge and D-amino acids extends the half-life relative to natural somatostatin (minutes to several hours).

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Histrelin and Octreotide?: Histrelin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Octreotide is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". Histrelin: Histrelin is a nonapeptide GnRH agonist delivered as a once-yearly implant. Approved for central precocious puberty in children (Supprelin LA) and advanced prostate cancer (Vantas). Octreotide: Synthetic octapeptide somatostatin analog with a longer half-life than endogenous somatostatin. FDA- and EMA-approved since the 1980s for acromegaly and neuroendocrine tumours. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
Which peptide is better supported by science, Histrelin or Octreotide?: The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Histrelin and "Humane RCT" for Octreotide. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
What is the legal status of Histrelin and Octreotide in Germany and the United States?: Duitsland: Histrelin — Op recept, Octreotide — Op recept. Verenigde Staten: Histrelin — Op recept, Octreotide — Op recept. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
