Fluoroethyl-L-tyrosine (F)
Pharmacotherapeutic Group: ATC Code V09IX10.
This Medication is a Radio-pharmaceutical Product, Intended Exclusively for Diagnostic Purposes.
IASOglio is Used for Diagnostic Imaging in Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Studies. IASOglio is Administered Before Such a Study.
The Radioactive Substance Contained in IASOglio is Detected and Visualized by PET.
Positron Emission Tomography is a Medical Imaging Technique that Allows for the Acquisition of Cross-Sectional Images of Living Organisms, Using Small Amounts of Radioactive Pharmaceutical Substances to Produce Precise Images of Specific Metabolic Processes in the Body. The Study Aims to Help Make Decisions About the Treatment of a Confirmed or Suspected Disease.
The Use of IASOglio Involves Exposure to Small Amounts of Radiation. The Nuclear Medicine Physician has Determined that the Clinical Benefits of the Procedure Using the Radio-pharmaceutical Outweigh the Risk to the Patient Associated with Radiation.
When Using IASOglio, Particular Caution Should be Exercised. The Patient Should Inform the Nuclear Medicine Physician if:
The Patient Should Inform the Nuclear Medicine Physician if They are Under 18 Years Old.
The Patient Should Tell the Nuclear Medicine Specialist About All Medications They are Currently Taking or Have Recently Taken, as Well as Any Medications They Plan to Take, as They May Affect the Interpretation of the Results.
Before the Study, the Patient Should Fast for at Least 4 Hours.
The Patient Should Drink Plenty of Water.
IASOglio Contains Alcohol. This Should be Taken into Account in Patients with Alcohol Dependence, Breastfeeding Women, Children, and Patients at High Risk, Such as Those with Liver Disease or Epilepsy.
If the Patient is Pregnant or Breastfeeding, or Thinks She May be Pregnant, or is Planning to Have a Child, She Should Consult the Nuclear Medicine Physician.
Before Administering IASOglio, the Patient Should Inform the Nuclear Medicine Specialist if There is a Possibility that She is Pregnant, Has Not Had Her Period, or is Breastfeeding. In Case of Doubt, the Patient Should Consult the Supervising Nuclear Medicine Physician.
If the Patient is Pregnant:
This Medication is Administered During Pregnancy Only if the Expected Benefits of its Use Outweigh the Risks.
If the Patient is Breastfeeding:
Breast Milk can be Expressed Before Administering the Medication and Stored for Later Use.
Breastfeeding Should be Interrupted for at Least 12 Hours. Breast Milk Obtained During this Time Should be Discarded.
The Patient Should Ask the Nuclear Medicine Physician When Breastfeeding can be Resumed.
The Effect of IASOglio on the Ability to Drive and Operate Machinery is Considered Unlikely.
This Preparation may Contain More than 1 mmol of Sodium (23 mg). This Should be Taken into Account in Patients on a Low-Sodium Diet.
One Dose of this Medication Contains a Maximum of 0.8 g of Ethanol (Alcohol). This Amount can Increase the Blood Alcohol Concentration by up to 0.02 g/L (2 mg/100 mL), Which is Equivalent to 20 mL of Beer or 8 mL of Wine per Dose in Adults. This Should be Taken into Account in Patients with Alcohol Dependence. This Should also be Taken into Account in Breastfeeding Women, Children, and Patients at High Risk, Such as Those with Liver Disease or Epilepsy.
The Use of Radio-pharmaceutical Preparations, Handling, and Disposal are Subject to Strict Regulations. IASOglio is Only Authorized for Use in Specially Controlled Areas. Only Trained and Qualified Personnel are Authorized to Handle and Administer the Preparation. These Personnel will Ensure the Safe Use of the Preparation and will Provide the Patient with Detailed Information About the Procedures Being Performed.
The Decision on the Dose of IASOglio in an Individual Case will be Made by the Supervising Nuclear Medicine Physician. This will be the Smallest Possible Dose Necessary to Obtain the Desired Information.
The Typical Dose Recommended for an Adult is Between 180 and 250 MBq (Depending on the Patient's Weight, the Type of Imaging Device Used, and the Imaging Mode). Megabecquerel (MBq) is a Unit Used to Express the Value of Radioactivity.
The Dose Used in Children and Adolescents Depends on the Patient's Weight.
IASOglio is Administered Intravenously.
A Single Administration is Sufficient for the Study.
After Administration of the Preparation, the Patient is Asked to Drink Water and then Urinate Immediately Before the Study.
The Nuclear Medicine Physician will Inform the Patient About the Typical Duration of the Procedure.
Overdose is Unlikely, as the Single Dose of IASOglio is Carefully Controlled by the Supervising Nuclear Medicine Physician. However, in Case of Overdose, Appropriate Treatment will be Applied.
It is Necessary to Maximize the Elimination of Radioactive Substances. The Patient Should Drink as Much Water as Possible and Urinate Frequently. If Necessary, Diuretics can be Used.
In Case of Additional Questions About the Use of IASOglio, the Patient Should Contact the Supervising Nuclear Medicine Physician.
Like All Medications, this Medication can Cause Adverse Reactions, Although Not Everyone Will Experience Them.
To Date, No Serious Adverse Reactions have been Observed.
The Administered Dose of Ionizing Radiation is Calculated to Minimize the Risk of Inducing Tumors and the Possibility of Genetic Damage.
The Nuclear Medicine Physician has Determined that the Clinical Benefits of the Procedure Using the Radio-pharmaceutical Outweigh the Risks Associated with Radiation.
If Any Adverse Reactions Occur, Including Any Adverse Reactions Not Listed in the Leaflet, the Patient Should Inform the Nuclear Medicine Specialist Who Supervised the Study.
Adverse Reactions can be Reported Directly to the Department of Monitoring of Adverse Reactions to Medicinal Products, Medical Devices, and Biocidal Products: Al. Jerozolimskie 181C, 02-222 Warsaw, Tel.: +48 22 49 21 301, Fax: +48 22 49 21 309, Website: https://smz.ezdrowie.gov.pl.
Adverse Reactions can also be Reported to the Marketing Authorization Holder.
Reporting Adverse Reactions will Help to Gather More Information on the Safety of the Medication.
