Linaclotid
Linaclotide activates the guanylate cyclase-C receptor on the luminal surface of the intestinal epithelium. This raises cyclic GMP (cGMP), increases secretion of chloride and bicarbonate into the lumen, raises stool fluid content and accelerates transit; pain signaling is also modulated.
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 Linaclotid and Octreotide?
- Linaclotid is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Octreotide is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". Linaclotid: Linaclotide is a 14-amino-acid peptide and guanylate cyclase-C (GC-C) agonist. It is approved for irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) and chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC). 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, Linaclotid or Octreotide?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Linaclotid 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 Linaclotid and Octreotide in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Linaclotid — Op recept, Octreotide — Op recept. Verenigde Staten: Linaclotid — Op recept, Octreotide — Op recept. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
