What is Sodium Molybdate (99mo)?

Sodium molybdate, the active ingredient in Montek, is a trace element supplement presented as an injectable solution for intravenous and ocular use. It provides molybdenum, an essential micronutrient involved in enzymatic processes, and may be employed where molybdenum supplementation is indicated.

GNH USA supplies Montek as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, transplant centres, oncology centres, pharmacies, clinics and research institutions worldwide.

What is Sodium Molybdate (99mo) used for?

Montek (sodium molybdate) is used to address conditions related to molybdenum metabolism and deficiency.

Molybdenum deficiency: restoration of normal molybdenum‑dependent enzyme function. Copper metabolism disorders: adjunct therapy to support copper homeostasis. Sulfite oxidase deficiency: provides essential cofactor for sulfite oxidase activity.

What are the side effects of Sodium Molybdate (99mo)?

Sodium molybdate may be associated with a range of adverse reactions.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea or vomiting. - Diarrhea or abdominal discomfort. - Headache or dizziness. - Injection‑site pain or erythema. - Skin rash or pruritus. - Mild transient elevation of liver enzymes.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Anaphylactic or severe hypersensitivity reactions. - Significant hepatic dysfunction or jaundice. - Acute renal impairment or failure. - Electrolyte disturbances (e.g., hyperuricemia). - Thrombocytopenia or other hematologic abnormalities. - Severe metabolic acidosis.

What precautions apply to Sodium Molybdate (99mo)?

When using Montek, several safety considerations should be observed.

Assess baseline molybdenum status: confirm deficiency before supplementation. Monitor renal and hepatic function: periodic laboratory tests are recommended. Avoid in patients with known hypersensitivity to molybdenum compounds. Use caution during pregnancy and breastfeeding: limited safety data are available. Do not exceed prescribed supplementation levels: excess molybdenum can be toxic. Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and light.

What does Sodium Molybdate (99mo) interact with?

Sodium molybdate can interact with certain medicines and nutrients.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - High‑dose copper supplements: may antagonize molybdate efficacy. - Chelating agents such as EDTA: can bind molybdate and reduce absorption. - Tetracycline antibiotics: may impair intestinal uptake of molybdate.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Vitamin B12 supplements: additive effect on enzyme activity may require monitoring. - Loop diuretics: may alter renal excretion of molybdenum. - Antacids containing aluminum or magnesium: could affect molybdate bioavailability.

Frequently asked questions

What is Montek used for?+
Montek contains sodium molybdate, which is employed as a molybdenum supplement to correct molybdenum deficiency, support copper metabolism, and provide a cofactor for enzymes such as sulfite oxidase in patients where these functions are clinically indicated.
How does sodium molybdate work?+
Sodium molybdate releases molybdate ions that act as essential cofactors for several molybdenum‑dependent enzymes. By supplying molybdenum, it enables normal activity of enzymes involved in purine catabolism, sulfite detoxification and drug metabolism, thereby restoring metabolic balance.
What is the usual dose of Montek?+
The dosage of Montek is individualized. A qualified prescriber determines the amount, frequency and route based on the patient’s clinical condition, laboratory results and overall treatment plan.
Is Montek safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for sodium molybdate in pregnancy and lactation are limited. The prescriber should weigh potential benefits against possible risks and decide whether use is appropriate for each individual.
How do I order Montek from GNH USA?+
To order Montek, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying 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 (including cold‑chain if needed) and required import documentation.
How does Montek compare with other molybdenum supplements?+
Montek delivers sodium molybdate in an injectable form, offering rapid systemic availability compared with oral molybdenum compounds. This can be advantageous in acute deficiency or when oral absorption is compromised, while oral supplements may be preferred for long‑term maintenance.
What are the storage and handling requirements for Montek?+
Montek should be stored at ambient temperature, protected from moisture and direct light. Keep the vial in its original packaging until use and avoid freezing. Follow standard aseptic handling procedures for injectable products.
How is Montek administered?+
Montek is administered by a qualified healthcare professional either as an intravenous infusion or as an ocular injection, depending on the therapeutic indication and prescribed route.
What are the most serious risks associated with Montek?+
Serious risks include severe hypersensitivity reactions such as anaphylaxis, significant hepatic or renal dysfunction, electrolyte disturbances, and rare hematologic abnormalities. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these occur.
Who should not use Montek?+
Montek should be avoided in individuals with known hypersensitivity to molybdenum compounds, in patients with severe renal or hepatic impairment, and in those where the risk of molybdenum excess outweighs potential benefit, unless closely monitored by a physician.
