What is Sodium Fluoride (18f)?

Sodium fluoride, the active ingredient in Iasofluorid, is a fluoride supplement presented as a sterile injectable solution for intravenous use. It helps correct fluoride deficiency and supports dental health in patients at risk of caries. GNH USA supplies Iasofluorid as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals worldwide.

What is Sodium Fluoride (18f) used for?

Iasofluorid, a fluoride supplement, is used to address conditions related to fluoride deficiency and dental health.

Fluoride deficiency: restores normal systemic fluoride levels to support bone and tooth mineralization. Prevention of dental caries: provides fluoride ions that enhance enamel remineralization and reduce decay risk.

What are the side effects of Sodium Fluoride (18f)?

Iasofluorid may be associated with a range of adverse reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea or vomiting - Mild abdominal discomfort - Headache - Metallic taste - Injection site pain or erythema - Transient dizziness

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Hyperfluorosis (excessive fluoride accumulation) - Severe allergic reaction, including anaphylaxis - Cardiac arrhythmia - Severe hypocalcemia - Acute renal impairment in susceptible individuals

What precautions apply to Sodium Fluoride (18f)?

Before initiating therapy with Iasofluorid, clinicians should consider several safety measures. - Assess baseline fluoride status: determine serum or urinary fluoride levels. - Monitor serum fluoride concentrations during treatment. - Use caution in patients with renal impairment: adjust dosing as needed. - Avoid in individuals with known hypersensitivity to fluoride compounds. - Pregnancy and lactation: safety not established; weigh potential benefits against risks. - Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and light.

What does Sodium Fluoride (18f) interact with?

Iasofluorid can interact with certain medications and supplements; awareness helps prevent adverse outcomes.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Calcium supplements: may reduce fluoride bioavailability. - Tetracycline antibiotics: can form insoluble complexes with fluoride. - High-dose vitamin D: may increase fluoride uptake and risk of toxicity. - Aluminum‑containing antacids: can bind fluoride and diminish efficacy.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - NSAIDs: monitor renal function during concurrent use. - Loop diuretics: may alter electrolyte balance affecting fluoride handling. - ACE inhibitors: watch for changes in renal clearance.

Frequently asked questions

What is Iasofluorid used for?+
Iasofluorid is used to treat fluoride deficiency and to help prevent dental caries by providing fluoride ions that support enamel remineralization and strengthen tooth structure.
How does sodium fluoride work in Iasofluorid?+
Sodium fluoride releases fluoride ions that can replace hydroxide in hydroxyapatite, forming fluorapatite, which is more resistant to acid dissolution. This process enhances enamel remineralization and restores systemic fluoride levels.
What is the usual dose of Iasofluorid?+
The appropriate dose of Iasofluorid is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s fluoride status, age, weight, and clinical condition. Dosage regimens are individualized and not standardized.
Is Iasofluorid safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety of Iasofluorid in pregnancy and lactation has not been established. Clinicians should evaluate the potential benefits against possible risks before prescribing to pregnant or nursing women.
How do I order Iasofluorid from GNH USA?+
To order Iasofluorid, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com with the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies, and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details, and necessary import documentation.
How does Iasofluorid compare with other fluoride supplements?+
Iasofluorid delivers fluoride intravenously, offering rapid systemic availability compared with oral fluoride tablets or topical gels. This route is useful for patients unable to take oral medications or who require immediate correction of fluoride deficiency.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Iasofluorid?+
Iasofluorid should be stored at ambient temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Protect the product from moisture, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures to maintain stability.
How is Iasofluorid administered?+
Iasofluorid is administered intravenously by a qualified healthcare professional. The infusion rate and volume are set according to the prescribing information and the patient’s clinical needs.
What are the most serious risks associated with Iasofluorid?+
Serious risks include hyperfluorosis, severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, cardiac arrhythmias, and acute renal impairment, particularly in patients with pre‑existing kidney disease.
Who should not use Iasofluorid?+
Iasofluorid should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to fluoride compounds, severe renal impairment, or those in whom the benefits do not outweigh the potential risks, such as certain pregnant or lactating patients.
