Sincalide (Cholecystokinin octapeptide, CCK-8) is a rapid-acting amino acid polypeptide hormone analogue of cholecystokinin (CCK) for intravenous use in postevacuation cholecystography. CCK-8 is a major bioactive segment of CCK that retains most of the biological activities of CCK. CCK-8 can promote gallbladder contraction by injection and helps diagnose gallbladder and pancreas disorders. CCK-8 can increase bile secretion, cause the gallbladder to contract and relax the sphincter of Oddi, resulting in bile drainage into the duodenum. CCK-8 is a major bioactive segment of CCK that retains most of the biological activities of CCK [1] [2] [3] .
