Product Elements:

Kit for the preparation of technetium tc 99m medronate technetium tc 99m medronate technetium tc-99m medronate technetium tc-99m medronate medronic acid ascorbic acid stannous fluoride sodium hydroxide hydrochloric acid

Indications and Usage:

Indications and usage technetium tc 99m medronate may be used as a bone imaging agent to delineate areas of altered osteogenesis.

Warnings:

Warnings this class of compounds is known to complex cations such as calcium. particular caution should be used with patients who have or who may be predisposed to hypocalcemia (i.e., alkalosis). preliminary reports indicate interference with brain scans using sodium pertechnetate tc 99m injection which have been preceded by a bone scan using an agent containing stannous ions. this interference may result in false-positive or false-negative brain scans. it is recommended, where feasible, that brain scans precede bone imaging procedures.

General Precautions:

General the contents of the kit before preparation are not radioactive. however, after the sodium pertechnetate tc 99m injection is added, adequate shielding of the final preparation must be maintained. contents of the reaction vial are intended only for use in the preparation of technetium tc 99m medronate and are not to be administered directly to the patient. technetium tc 99m medronate as well as other radioactive drugs, must be handled with care. once sodium pertechnetate tc 99m is added to the vial, appropriate safety measures should be used to minimize external radiation to clinical occupational personnel. care should also be taken to minimize radiation exposure to patients in a manner consistent with proper patient management. to minimize the radiation dose to the bladder, the patient should be encouraged to drink fluids and to void immediately before the examination and as often thereafter as possible for the next four to six hours. technetium tc 99m medronate should be formul
ated within six (6) hours prior to clinical use. optimal imaging results are obtained one to four hours after administration. technetium tc 99m medronate injection should be discarded six hours after reconstitution. the solution should not be used if cloudy. the components of the kit are sterile and pyrogen-free. it is essential to follow directions carefully and to adhere to strict aseptic procedures during preparation. the technetium tc 99m labeling reactions involved in preparing the agent depend on maintaining the stannous ion in the reduced state. any oxidant present in the sodium pertechnetate tc 99m supply may, thus, adversely affect the quality of the radiopharmaceutical. hence, sodium pertechnetate tc 99m containing oxidants should not be employed. radiopharmaceuticals should be used only by physicians who are qualified by training and experience in the safe use and handling of radionuclides.

Dosage and Administration:

Dosage and administration after preparation with oxidant-free sodium pertechnetate tc 99m injection the suggested dose range of technetium tc 99m medronate injection in the average patient (70 kg) is 370 mbq to 740 mbq (10 mci to 20 mci) given intravenously. imaging post injection is optimal at 1 to 4 hours. the patient dose should be measured by a suitable radioactivity calibration system immediately prior to administration. parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration whenever solution and container permit. shielding should be utilized when preparing the technetium tc 99m medronate injection. radiation dosimetry the effective half-life was assumed to be the physical half-life for all calculated values. the estimated radiation absorbed doses to an average patient (70 kg) from an intravenous injection of a maximum dose of 740 mbq (20 mci) of technetium tc 99m medronate are shown in table 4 . table 4 absorbed radi

Contraindications:

Contraindications none known.

Adverse Reactions:

Adverse reactions several adverse reactions due to technetium tc 99m medronate have been reported. these were usually hypersensitivity reactions characterized by itching, various skin rashes, hypotension, chills, nausea and vomiting. there have also been rare cases of dizziness and asthenia associated with the use of technetium tc 99m medronate.

Use in Pregnancy:

Pregnancy animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with technetium tc 99m medronate. it is also not known whether technetium tc 99m medronate can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproductive capacity. technetium tc 99m medronate should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

Pediatric Use:

Pediatric use safety and effectiveness in children have not been established.

Description:

Description each reaction vial contains a sterile, nonpyrogenic, nonradioactive lyophilized mixture of 20 mg medronic acid, 1 mg ascorbic acid, 0.13 mg (minimum) stannous fluoride, snf 2 and 0.38 mg total tin, maximum (as stannous fluoride, snf 2 ). the ph is adjusted with sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid to 6.5 (6.3 to 6.7) prior to lyophilization. the vial does not contain a preservative. the contents of the vial are lyophilized and sealed under nitrogen at the time of manufacture. the ph of the reconstituted product is 5.4 to 6.8. the structure of medronic acid is given below: the precise structure of technetium tc 99m medronate is unknown at this time. when sterile, pyrogen-free sodium pertechnetate tc 99m injection is added to the vial, the diagnostic agent technetium tc 99m medronate is formed for administration by intravenous injection. structure of medronic acid

Clinical Pharmacology:

Clinical pharmacology during the initial 24 hours following intravenous injection of technetium tc 99m medronate, about 50 percent of the dose is retained in the skeleton, and about 50 percent is excreted in the urine. a minimum amount of uptake has been observed in soft-tissue organs, most notably the kidneys. clearance of radioactivity from the blood is quite rapid, with about 10 percent of the injected dose remaining at one hour, and less than 5 and 2 percent at two and four hours, respectively. the rapid blood clearance (t ½: 38 to 75 minutes) provides bone to non-osseous tissue ratios favoring early imaging. following intravenous administration of technetium tc 99m medronate, skeletal uptake occurs as a function of blood flow to bone and bone efficiency in extracting the complex. bone mineral crystals are generally considered to be hydroxyapatite, and the complex appears to have an affinity for the hydroxyapatite crystals in bone. deposition of radioactivity in bone is rapid an
d appears to be related to osteogenic activity as well as the aforementioned skeletal blood perfusion. skeletal uptake is bilaterally uniform, with larger concentrations in the axial structure and in the long bones. increased accumulation of radioactivity may be seen, generally, in any bone disease state in which there is increased osteogenesis or a localized increase in osseous blood perfusion; consequently, bone imaging agents generally are not effective in detecting chronic bone diseases.

Carcinogenesis and Mutagenesis and Impairment of Fertility:

Carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, impairment of fertility no long-term animal studies have been performed to evaluate carcinogenic potential or whether technetium tc 99m medronate affects fertility in males or females.
