Diacylglycerol + Octreotide
Octreotide brand names: Sandostatin, Mycapssa.
We found no known interaction between Diacylglycerol and Octreotide in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the label for Octreotide states a food rule worth keeping to.
Diacylglycerol and Octreotide
We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.
No Known Interaction Found
We did not find a documented interaction between Octreotide and Diacylglycerol in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.
Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Diacylglycerol at all — not against Octreotide, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.
If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.
Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Some Octreotide Products Have a Food Rule — Diacylglycerol Should Not Break It
At least one FDA label for a product containing Octreotide says to take it on an empty stomach. Most supplements — Diacylglycerol included — are taken with a meal, so the easy mistake is swallowing both together at breakfast. Where that rule applies, keep Octreotide on its own and move Diacylglycerol to a meal later in the day.
This may not be true of your version. Food instructions belong to the product, not the ingredient: two Octreotide products can carry different directions, and extended-release forms often differ from immediate-release ones. The label we read is quoted below — check the directions on your own box or bottle, or ask your pharmacist, for how to take the exact product you were given.
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Take MYCAPSSA orally with a glass of water on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before a meal or at least 2 hours after a meal ( 2.1 ).
From the Dosage and Administration section of the FDA label we read for Octreotide — where that label names a specific product, the instruction is that product's. Read the label on DailyMed ›
A food rule is not an interaction — it is about how much of the medicine you absorb. The directions that came with your own product, and your pharmacist, outrank anything on this page.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Octreotide page
“Take this page with genuine care if you use octreotide (Sandostatin injections or Mycapssa capsules) for acromegaly or hormone-secreting tumors, since steady drug levels are what keep symptoms suppressed. Of the 30 ingredients on file, one rates major, activated charcoal, which can pull octreotide out of circulation and blunt its effec…”

Taking Diacylglycerol as Part of a Dietary Supplement Product? Check It for Interactions
We hold 1 real supplement products containing Diacylglycerol, each one broken down to its full ingredient list — and combination products often carry several ingredients besides Diacylglycerol. Even though Diacylglycerol itself has no known interaction with Octreotide, another ingredient on your label might. Find your product and we’ll check every ingredient on its label:

Where does our data come from?
- Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Diacylglycerol is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
- Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Diacylglycerol reference on this page ↓
- Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Diacylglycerol and Octreotide records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
- What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.
About Diacylglycerol
What is Diacylglycerol?
- Weight management
- Reducing body fat
- Lowering blood triglycerides
- Healthy cooking oil substitute
Diacylglycerol (DAG) is a type of fat found naturally in small amounts in many edible oils and was once sold as a specialty cooking oil marketed for weight and fat management. Evidence for meaningful weight-loss benefits over regular cooking oils is weak and mixed, and one major DAG oil product was pulled from the market over a processing-related contaminant concern. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before relying on it for any health purpose.
Edible oil component (derived from vegetable oils such as soybean and rapeseed) · Cooking oil, salad dressings, and processed food products
An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Diacylglycerol is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Diacylglycerol record says about it on its own.
Diacylglycerol: dosing
There is no established or standardized dose of diacylglycerol for any health benefit. When sold as a cooking oil, it was simply used in place of regular oil in everyday cooking.If you come across a diacylglycerol product, follow the label directions and do not assume that using more will give you any extra benefit.

About Octreotide
What Is Octreotide Used For?
Brand names: Sandostatin, Mycapssa
Octreotide injection (available as Sandostatin, BYNFEZIA Pen, and other octreotide acetate injection products) is used to lower abnormally high growth hormone and IGF-1 levels in acromegaly, and to reduce the severe diarrhea and flushing associated with metastatic carcinoid tumors and the profuse watery diarrhea caused by VIPomas (vasoactive intestinal peptide-secreting tumors).
Mycapssa, the oral delayed-release capsule, is approved specifically for long-term maintenance treatment of acromegaly in patients who have already responded to and tolerated treatment with octreotide or lanreotide injections. It is not indicated for carcinoid tumors or VIPomas.
