Symptoms are facial flushing, which is redness and a warm feeling over the face, diarrhea, asthma, abdominal pain caused by intestinal blockage, rash, heart disease, intestinal bleeding. For symptomatic relief of carcinoid syndrome: Octreotide: a somatostatin analogue which reduces the secretion of serotonin by the tumor and, secondarily, decreases the breakdown product of serotonin. Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with lutetium-177, indium-111 labelled to octreotate is highly effective. Surgical resection of tumor and chemotherapy (5-FU and doxorubicin). Endovascular, chemo-embolization, targeted chemotherapy directly provided to the liver through special catheters mixed with embolic beads, used for patients with liver metastases.
