Carcinoid syndrome causes substantial morbidity and reduces quality of life and survival. In a recent clinical trial, 97% of patients reported bowel movement-related issues, abdominal pain, flushing, and low energy. Combining somatostatin analogs with elotristat ethyl provides a new option for managing refractory CS symptoms. Health care providers should consider strategies that take advantage of approved dosing for patients with CS-related diarrhea.
