Octreotide IM injections

Due to drug supply availability, our institution switched to a different brand of octreotide IM injections. We have had an increase in issues with preparation and administration. Wondering if other institutions have had to switch products and noticed any issues. If so, please share any information or solutions you have found that work. Thank you!
