Sodium Iodide I-131 (NaI-131) for therapeutic use is supplied for oral administration in small opaque white gelatin capsules, inside a blue and clear outer capsule. Each I-131 mini capsule is available in strengths ranging from (0.1 – 150 mCi) at the time of calibration. Iodine 131 decays by beta emission and associated gamma emission with a physical half-life of 8.04 days.
Sodium Iodide I-131 Mini Capsules are compounded by absorbing a solution of carrier-free sodium iodide I-131 into inert filler. The iodine 131 utilized in the preparation of the capsules contains not less than 99% Iodine-131 at the time of calibration.
Gelatin capsules are compounded per prescription requirements using high specific concentration I-131, allowing higher iodine activity in a small easy to swallow high activity capsule size. Capsules are formulated to rapidly dissolve in saline solution, to allow use for oral solution administration when clinically necessary.
