Ketorolac in Neuropathic Pain

movement in pancreatic and biliary epithelium via activation of secretin receptors. Secretin receptors are also present in human lung, and activation of these receptors by secretin potently stimulates Cl efflux from bronchial epithelial cells. One possible mechanism by which octreotide may have reduced sputum production is by lowering plasma levels of secretin, and hence reducing Cl efflux from bronchial epithelial cells. The benefit of octreotide in reducing excess sputum production has not previously been reported. Octreotide may be a useful agent in the management of bronchorrhea due to invasive adenocarcinoma of the lung, and may merit investigation in other lung diseases, including BAC.
