Background:

Drug and radiopharmaceutical interactions can affect the accuracy and safety of nuclear medicine procedures.
A lack of readily accessible information hinders effective management of these interactions.
Nuclear medicine staff require efficient tools to identify and mitigate potential risks.

Purpose of the Study:

To compile and classify documented drug and radiopharmaceutical interactions relevant to nuclear medicine studies.
To create a rapid reference tool for nuclear medicine professionals.
To promote awareness and reporting of drug-related events in nuclear medicine.

Main Methods:

Information on drug and radiopharmaceutical interactions was systematically gathered.
Data was organized into a tabular format, categorized by specific nuclear medicine study types.
The compilation focused on clinically significant and documented interactions.

Main Results:

A comprehensive table of drug and radiopharmaceutical interactions was developed.
The table is classified according to various nuclear medicine imaging modalities and procedures.
This resource serves as a quick reference guide for clinical application.

Conclusions:

The developed tabular resource facilitates rapid identification of potential drug and radiopharmaceutical interactions.
Implementing drug chart monitoring and comprehensive patient history taking is crucial.
Encouraging the reporting of such interactions will improve patient safety in nuclear medicine.
