Drug interactions involving therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals: a systematic review

Drug interactions with therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals remain underreported, yet they may have significant clinical consequences. Clinical radiopharmacy plays a key role in detecting and preventing these interactions. Radiopharmacists, through their expertise, can identify potential interactions, influence therapeutic decisions, and positively impact patient management. Their involvement throughout the care pathway is essential to ensure the safe and effective use of these innovative therapies. Nuclear medicine physicians should also be aware that such interactions can alter biodistribution, compromise therapeutic efficacy, and increase the risk of adverse effects.

Abstract

Drug interactions with therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals remain underreported, yet they may have significant clinical consequences. Clinical radiopharmacy plays a key role in detecting and preventing these interactions. Radiopharmacists, through their expertise, can identify potential interactions, influence therapeutic decisions, and positively impact patient management. Their involvement throughout the care pathway is essential to ensure the safe and effective use of these innovative therapies. Nuclear medicine physicians should also be aware that such interactions can alter biodistribution, compromise therapeutic efficacy, and increase the risk of adverse effects.
