FLUDEOXYGLUCOSE F-18
FLUDEOXYGLUCOSE F-18 300 mCi in 1 mL
INTRAVENOUS
PRESCRIPTION DRUG
For the identification of regions of abnormal glucose metabolism associated with foci of epileptic seizures. None. Pregnancy Category C Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection. It is also not known whether Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Consider alternative diagnostic tests in a pregnant woman; administer Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection only if clearly needed. It is not known whether Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection is excreted in human milk. Consider alternative diagnostic tests in women who are breast-feeding. Use alternatives to breast feeding (e.g., stored breast milk or infant formula) for at least 10 half-lives of radioactive decay, if Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection is administered to a woman who is breast-feeding. The safety and effectiveness of Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection in pediatric patients with epilepsy is established on the basis of studies in adult and
Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection is supplied in a multi-dose, capped 20 mL glass vial containing between 0.740 – 11.1GBq/mL (20 - 300 mCi/mL), of no carrier added 2-deoxy-2-[F 18] fluoro-D-glucose, at end of synthesis, in approximately 16 - 17 mL. The contents of each vial are sterile, pyrogen-free and preservative-free. NDC 13267-123 -23 This radiopharmaceutical is licensed by the State of New York, Department Of Health, Bureau of Environmental Radiation Protection, for distribution to persons licensed pursuant to New York's Regulatory Code for Radioactive material specified in Chapter 1-Part 16 of the State Sanitary Code, as appropriate, or under equivalent licenses of an Agreement State or Licensing State. Store the Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection vial upright in a lead shielded container at 25°C (77°F); excursions permitted to 15-30°C (59-86°F). Store and dispose of Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection in accordance with the regulations and a general license, or its equivalent, of an Agreement State or a Licensing State. The expiration date and time are provided on the container label. Use Fludeoxyglucose F 18 Injection within 12 hours from the EOS time.

SEE FULL PRESCRIBING INFORMATION FOR FLUDEOXYGLUCOSE F18 INJECTION. FLUDEOXYGLUCOSE F18 INJECTION INITIAL U.S. APPROVAL: 2005 RECENT MAJOR CHANGES Warnings and Precautions: ( 5.1, 5.2) 7/2010 Adverse Reactions ( 6) 7/2010 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Fludeoxyglucose F18 Injection is indicated for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in the following settings: Oncology: For assessment of abnormal glucose metabolism to assist in the evaluation of malignancy in patients with known or suspected abnormalities found by other testing modalities, or in patients with an existing diagnosis of cancer. Cardiology: For the identification of left ventricular myocardium with residual glucose metabolism and reversible loss of systolic function in patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction, when used together with myocardial perfusion imaging. Neurology: For the identification of regions of abnormal glucose metabolism associated with foci of epileptic seizures (1). DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Fludeoxyglucose F18 Injection emits radiation. Use procedures to minimize radiation exposure. Screen for blood glucose abnormalities. In the oncology and neurology settings, instruct patients to fast for 4 – 6 hours prior to the drug’s injection. Consider medical therapy and laboratory testing to assure at least two days of normoglycemia prior to the drug’s administration (5.2). In the cardiology setting, administration of glucose-containing food or liquids (e.g., 50 – 75 grams) prior to the drug’s injection facilitates localization of cardiac ischemia (2.3). Aseptically withdraw Fludeoxyglucose F18 Injection from its container and administer by intravenous injection (2). The recommended dose: for adults is 5 – 10 mCi (185 – 370 MBq), in all קרא את המסמך השלם
