Since octreotide resembles somatostatin in physiological activities, it can: 1  inhibit secretion of many hormones, such as gastrin, cholecystokinin, glucagon, growth hormone, insulin, secretin, pancreatic polypeptide, TSH, and vasoactive intestinal peptide,  reduce secretion of fluids by the intestine and pancreas,
TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone) increases the activity of the Sodium-Iodine Symporter (NIS) that drives iodine into the thyroid and into the cells of the other organs. That is the reason that the TSH blood levels increase when patients are taking iodine â the TSH is needed to drive iodine into the cells.
