Resumo(s)
Radiopharmaceuticals are unique in that they contain radioactive isotopes which emit radiation for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.1 They are also used in very small dosages when compared to conventional drugs and the frequency of administrating radiopharmaceuticals in an individual during is lifetime is also very low. Nevertheless due to their specific nature, radiopharmaceuticals require careful monitoring and surveillance to detect and manage any potential adverse effects or safety concerns.2 Pharmacists, radiations technologists, physicians and other hospital staff play a crucial role in ensuring the safe handling, administration, and monitoring of these specialized drugs. Their joint involvement in pharmacovigilance is essential for maintaining patient safety and optimizing the use of radiopharmaceuticals.
