ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a radiation-protecting agent which protects the active ingredient of radiopharmaceuticals against the radiolysis caused by a reaction of the active ingredient with water radicals formed by radiolysis of water, without decomposing the reactive active ingredient such as readily reducible active ingredient. The radiation-protecting agent of the present invention is characterized by comprising an organic compound usable in medical drugs and having high physiological acceptability and protecting the radiolabeled active ingredient of radiopharmaceuticals against the action of radiation. The reaction rate constant of said organic compound with OH radical, H radical or hydrated electron must be in the range of from 1.times.10.sup.8 to 5.times.10.sup.10 M.sup.-1 s.sup.-1, and when added to radiopharmaceuticals, molar concentration of the organic compound must be at least 50 times as high as molar concentration of the active ingredient.
