Theragnostics has initiated temporary importation of DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer Injection into the U.S. market. (drugs.com)
At this time, no other entity except ROTOP Pharmaka GmbH, Germany through its US Agent, Theragnostics, and Theragnostics' distributor, Medi-Physics Inc., dba GE Healthcare, is authorized by the FDA to import or distribute the DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer Injection in the U.S. FDA has not approved ROTOP Pharmaka GmbH's Kit for DMSA Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer Injection product in the U.S. (drugs.com)
There are some differences in the labeling between the FDA-approved DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer Injection (GE Healthcare) product and ROTOP DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer Injection (Theragnostics) product (please see the product comparison tables below).

A lactating woman should pump and discard breastmilk for at least 24 hours after Technetium Tc 99m Succimer Injection administration. (nih.gov)
Use waterproof gloves, effective radiation shielding, and other appropriate safety measures when preparing and handling Technetium Tc 99m Succimer Injection. (nih.gov)
DMSA14
Due to the current critical shortage of DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer, Theragnostics Inc. (Theragnostics) is coordinating with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to increase the availability of the drug. (drugs.com)
In alignment with current practice, the ROTOP DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer label does not include a statement under the heading "Pediatric Use" that appears in the GE Healthcare label as follows: "Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established. (drugs.com)
however, like the GE Healthcare product, ROTOP DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer is manufactured to be sterile. (drugs.com)
Side effects encountered with use of the ROTOP DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer within the U.S. can be reported directly to Theragnostics, Inc., at 1-888-286-3848 rather than the foreign site referenced in the label for ROTOP DMSA Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc99m Succimer.

99m)Tc-dimercaptosuccinic acid [DMSA(III)] and colloidal human serum albumin ((99m)Tc-nanocolloid) are widely used radiopharmaceuticals. (bvsalud.org)
Recently, in our institution we encountered image quality problems in DMSA scans after changing the brand of syringes we were using, which triggered us to look into the adsorption properties of syringes from different brands for (99m)Tc-DMSA(III) and (99m)Tc-nanocolloid. (bvsalud.org)
We also describe a clinical case in which adsorption of (99m)Tc-DMSA(III) caused inferior imaging quality. (bvsalud.org)
DMSA and nanocolloid were labeled with (99m)Tc following manufacturer guidelines. (bvsalud.org)
After synthesis, syringes with (99m)Tc-DMSA(III) and (99m)Tc-nanocolloid were stored for 15, 30, 60, and 120 min. (bvsalud.org)
Dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) has been evaluated and used with technetium 99m ((99m)Tc) in imaging of kidneys. (bvsalud.org)
DMSA lyophilized kits were prepared and radiolabelled with (99m)Tc. (bvsalud.org)
Paper and thin-layer chromatography have been employed using various eluent systems for the radiochemical analysis, percentage labeling and binding capacity of (99m)Tc-DMSA. (bvsalud.org)
On the basis of animal biodistribution data, it is suggested that DMSA when labeled with (99m)Tc is useful complex for renal imaging and can be successfully applied as a diagnostic tool in nuclear medicine. (bvsalud.org)

Residual1
CONCLUSION: The inert nonreactive syringes had significantly less residual of (99m)Tc-succimer than silicone-based syringes, making it possible to accurately administer calculated doses of (99m)Tc-succimer to pediatric patients. (bvsalud.org)
