Octreotide pearls 1. When a patient comes in with upper GI bleeding, you do NOT need a PPI with octreotide because “it may be an ulcer”. Both drugs raise the gastric pH to the same amount 2. Octreotide stops working after 3-6 days.

Question: why go so big on the steroids? The average patient is getting 50-100mg of pred to start in these guidelines?
