the ability to mark cells in which very intense division processes occur.
FLT (F) Synektik contains the radioactive substance fluorodeoxythymidine (F) and is
used in examinations by positron emission tomography (PET). The medicine FLT (F) Synektik is administered before the examination.
After administering a small amount of FLT (F) Synektik, the doctor will take pictures with a special device
(tomograph), on the basis of which they will assess the patient's condition and progress in treating the disease.
The doctor will administer the medicine only if the clinical benefits of using the radiopharmaceutical product
are greater than the risks associated with exposing the patient to ionizing radiation.

There are no known restrictions on the type of food and drink consumed.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Pregnant patients

The doctor in nuclear medicine will decide to use FLT (F) Synektik in women with a positive pregnancy test only if the expected benefits for the woman from administering this medicine outweigh the risk to the fetus associated with administering the medicine. If the estimated dose for the fetus is less than 1 mSv, the administration of the radiopharmaceutical is acceptable in justified cases.

Breastfeeding patients

After injecting FLT (F) Synektik, breastfeeding should be interrupted for 12 hours and the expressed milk should be discarded during this time.
The resumption of breastfeeding should be agreed upon with the specialist doctor in nuclear medicine who performs the examination. Before administering the radiopharmaceutical, a sufficient amount of milk can be expressed and stored for later use.

The use of radiopharmaceuticals, handling, and disposal are strictly regulated by relevant regulations. FLT (F) Synektik will be used exclusively in specially controlled rooms and administered to patients in accordance with radiological protection rules by trained and qualified medical staff. These staff will strictly follow the rules for safe use of the medicine and inform the patient about the procedures being performed.
The specialist doctor in nuclear medicine supervising the examination will select the appropriate dose of FLT (F) Synektik for each patient. This will be the smallest amount of medicine that allows the examination to be performed.
The recommended activity for an adult patient with a body weight of 70 kg is from 150 to 600 MBq of fluorodeoxythymidine (F) (the dose should be selected individually based on body weight and/or depending on the type of imaging technique used, clinical image, patient condition, and information collected during the interview).

The medicinal product FLT (F) Synektik is administered by direct intravenous injection.
The examination is performed 15-30 minutes after intravenous administration.
Before administration, the patient will receive a recommendation from the doctor to drink a lot and urinate frequently.

Duration of the examination

The specialist doctor in nuclear medicine will inform the patient how long the examination will take.

After administering FLT (F) Synektik:
