Treatment for acromegaly aims to reduce GH levels to normal, alleviate symptoms, and prevent complications. Options include:
Surgery: The primary treatment is usually the surgical removal of the pituitary tumor. Medications: Drugs such as somatostatin analogs, GH receptor antagonists, and dopamine agonists can help control hormone levels. Radiation Therapy: This may be used if surgery and medications are not effective in controlling the disorder.
