My husband had Pluvicto infusions at Mayo Rochester. Their radiation safety instructions were much less strict. They said we could ride in the car together and sleep in the same room right away without worrying. They did advise using separate toilets for a few days and said children and pregnant women should stay six feet away. The infusions are six weeks apart and the radiation declines pretty quickly after each one. No need to isolate the patient and no need to buy a Geiger counter as some men on this forum advocate.

@lag I'm very concerned after reading about the less restricted protocol at Mayo Clinic because the 3 day after treatment for us is VERY extensive, especially the first three days and they pushed for seven which way is best?
