      Mechanism Effect fludeoxyglucose F18 diagnostic test results Fludeoxyglucose F18
      Key Mechanism Factor 1
Factor Name Pharmacokinetics
Factor Description Alters the distribution of the drug, leading to changes in the plasma concentration of the drug and affecting the pharmacological effects.
      Mechanism Description
  • Interference of cell/tissue uptake of Fludeoxyglucose (18F) by Sargramostim 

Recommended Action
      Management Clinicians should be aware of possible diagnostic interference associated with the following medications: colony-stimulating factors may increase uptake in spleen and bone marrow glucose-induced hyperglycemia may interfere with uptake dopamine and insulin may decrease myocardial and tumor cell uptake laxative-induced intestinal muscle activity and/or irritation may increase intestinal uptake.
