Benefits of Odon Injection
In Acromegaly

It is given as an injection by a doctor or nurse and should not be self-administered.
In Carcinoid tumours
Carcinoid tumors are slow growing abnormal masses that occur in several parts of the body, chiefly, intestine, pancreas, colon, rectum, lungs etc. These tumors occur due to oversecretion of certain hormones in our body.
