Signifor is a medicine that contains diastereomates of pasireotide, a substance that is a copy of the natural hormone somatostatin, which acts to block the release of ACTH. When this happens, blood cortisol levels decrease, alleviating the typical symptoms of Cushing's disease. This drug can not yet be bought in pharmacies in Brazil, but has already been registered with Anvisa, and should be available soon
