🧪 Inactive Ingredients / Excipients

Inactive ingredients, also called excipients, are components of the drug product other than the active ingredient. They may include fillers, dyes, coatings, preservatives, flavors, or other formulation ingredients.

A current SPL was checked, but it does not contain a structured or narrative inactive-ingredient list for this product. This does not mean the product has no inactive ingredients.
Where does this data come from?
Source: official FDA Structured Product Labeling (SPL) via DailyMed and the openFDA label index. Structured IACT rows and label-wide narrative are kept separate; availability and product-level specificity depend on the submitted label.

Inactive ingredient FAQ

Are inactive ingredients the same for every manufacturer?
No. Inactive ingredients can differ by manufacturer, dosage form, strength, and package / product version.
Why might an inactive ingredient be missing?
Some SPLs do not provide a complete structured inactive-ingredient list, and older or unusual labels may only include the information in narrative text.
Can inactive ingredients matter?
Yes. They can matter for allergies, intolerances, dyes, gluten / lactose concerns, preservatives, and formulation differences — but confirm with a pharmacist or the manufacturer when it’s clinically important.

💲 Pricing

A drug doesn't have one price. Each row is a different public payment system, and none is what you'd pay at the counter — that depends on your insurance. The ⓘ on each row explains what it measures.

Price systemPer mLPer package
Retail pharmacies payNADAC · weekly Not in the retail survey — common for institutional, discontinued, or low-volume packs.
Medicaid paysCMS SDUD · 12 mo No recent Medicaid claims on file for this NDC — rare and low-volume NDCs are suppressed in the public data.
Medicare drug plans payPart D · quarterly No Part D plan price is available for this NDC in our data.
ℹ️
No price is published for this exact package yet. CMS surveys NADAC per package size, so a different pack of the same drug often has one.
Where does this data come from?
NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) is the CMS weekly pharmacy-acquisition-cost survey — what pharmacies pay. ASP (Average Sales Price) is the CMS Medicare Part B drug-payment file, published quarterly. Medicaid pays is computed by us from CMS State Drug Utilization Data (total reimbursed ÷ units, trailing 12 months) — gross of rebates and inclusive of dispensing fees, so it reflects what Medicaid paid, not an acquisition cost. Medicare drug plans pay is the median negotiated point-of-sale unit cost across plans listing this NDC in the CMS quarterly Prescription Drug Plan pricing files, before rebates. The VA pays is the federal contract price (FSS, and the statutory Big 4 ceiling where listed) from the VA National Acquisition Center pharmaceutical price file. All are free public government data; each measures a different payer, so the figures are not directly comparable.

Questions about this listing

Why is there no price listed?
The pricing shown on our NDC pages comes from CMS NADAC, a voluntary survey of retail community pharmacy invoices. CMS does not publish a NADAC for every NDC — packages outside the retail survey (institutional and hospital products, bulk packages, discontinued items, and many OTC items) may never receive one. A missing price reflects the survey's scope, not this product's actual cost, and does not mean the product is free or unavailable.
Is the NDC printed on the package the same as the 11-digit billing NDC?
Yes, they identify this exact package in different formats. The FDA registers it as 67066-005-01, which is what is printed on the packaging and shown on DailyMed. Insurance claims use a fixed 11-digit 5-4-2 format, so the short segment is padded with a leading zero: 67066-0005-01, written without dashes as 67066000501. The Identity section at the top of this page lists every form of this code.
What do the three segments of this NDC mean?
In 67066-0005-01, the first segment (67066) is the labeler code FDA assigned to ChiRhoClin, Inc.; the middle segment (0005) identifies this specific product — its ingredient, strength, and dosage form; and the last segment (01) identifies this exact package size and type. Together they name one specific package of one specific product.
Is this package still being marketed?
Yes, per the latest FDA NDC Directory data on this page: this package is listed as actively marketed, with no marketing end date reported by ChiRhoClin, Inc.. Listing status can change — the directory data on this page refreshes weekly.
Who lists this product with the FDA?
ChiRhoClin, Inc. is the labeler of record for this NDC — the company under whose FDA-assigned code the package is listed. The labeler may be the manufacturer itself or a distributor marketing the product under its own code.
Do I need a prescription for this product?
This NDC is listed with FDA as a prescription product, so it is dispensed under a prescriber's order. Your pharmacist can tell you whether any over-the-counter forms of the same medication exist.
This page identifies an FDA-listed package (the NDC) and reports public regulatory and pricing data about the listing. It is reference information, not a medical recommendation — talk to your pharmacist or prescriber about your own medication.

ChiRhoStim® is a secretin class hormone indicated for stimulation of: pancreatic secretions, including bicarbonate, to aid in the diagnosis of exocrine pancreas dysfunction (1) gastrin secretion to aid in the diagnosis of gastrinoma (1) pancreatic secretions to facilitate the identification of the ampulla of Vater and the accessory papilla during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) (1)

⏱️ Dosage and Administration ~3 min read ▾

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

2.2Preparation and Dosage Regimen The recommended dosage regimen of ChiRhoStim® by indication is shown below in Table 1. TABLE 1: Dosage by Indication Indication Recommended Dosage Regimen Stimulation of pancreatic secretions, including bicarbonate, to aid in the diagnosis of exocrine pancreas dysfunction 0.2 mcg/kg by intravenous injection over 1 minute Stimulation of gastrin secretion to aid in diagnosis of gastrinoma 0.4 mcg/kg by intravenous injection over 1 minute Stimulation of pancreatic secretions to facilitate the identification of the ampulla of Vater and accessory papilla during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) 0.2 mcg/kg by intravenous injection over 1 minute Preparation of Recommended Dosage ChiRhoStim ® is a lyophilized powder, which requires reconstitution prior to intravenous administration.

Determine the number of vials needed for the prescribed dosage based on the patient’s weight and recommended dosage. Follow these steps to determine the patient dose: Total dose (mcg) = patient’s weight (kg) x prescribed dose (mcg/kg). Total injection volume (mL) = total dose (mcg) divided by the concentration of the reconstituted solution (2 mcg/mL).

Round the total injection volume to the nearest tenth of a mL. Total number of vials = total injection volume divided by the vial volume (8 mL). To reconstitute one 16 mcg vial: Dissolve the contents of the ChiRhoStim ® 16 mcg vial in 8 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, to yield a concentration of 2 mcg/mL.

Shake vigorously to ensure dissolution. Inspect the reconstituted solution visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. If particulate matter or discoloration is seen, discard the reconstituted solution.

To reconstitute one 40 mcg vial: Dissolve the contents of the ChiRhoStim ® 40 mcg vial in 10 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP, to yield a concentration of 4 mcg/mL. Shake vigorously to ensure dissolution. Inspect the reconstituted solution visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration.

If particulate matter or discoloration is seen, discard the reconstituted solution. Repeat steps above to reconstitute additional vials, as needed, to administer the total dose. Use immediately after reconstitution and discard any unused portion.

2.3Administration and Test Methods Stimulation testing with ChiRhoStim ® should only be performed by physicians with sufficient expertise. Ensure that the institution has established normative ranges for pancreatic exocrine response. Stimulation of Pancreatic Secretions, including Bicarbonate, to Aid in the Diagnosis of Exocrine Pancreas Dysfunction: Preparation: Instruct patients to fast for at least 12 to 15 hours prior to beginning the test.

Sample Collection: [performed using either the gastroduodenal/Dreiling tube (fluoroscopic) or endoscopic collection method] Gastroduodenal (Dreiling) Tube Collection Method Pass a radiopaque, double-lumen gastroduodenal tube through the mouth using a guidewire. Under fluoroscopic guidance, place the opening of the proximal lumen in the gastric antrum and the opening of the distal lumen beyond the ampulla of Vater. Confirm the tube positioning and secure the tube.

Connect both the proximal (gastric) and distal (duodenal) lumens to low intermittent suction, and apply negative pressure of 25 to 40 mmHg to both lumens. Collect a sample of the duodenal contents and check the pH of the aspirate to verify tube position. Proceed to next step if the duodenal aspirate has a pH of 6 or higher.

If the pH is less than 6, reposition the tube. Collect a baseline sample of duodenal fluid for a 15-minute period. Administer ChiRhoStim ® at a dose of 0.2 mcg/kg body weight intravenously over 1 minute [see Dosage and Administration (2.2)] .

For the 60-minute period following the injection, collect four consecutive 15-minute samples of duodenal fluid. Clear the duodenal lumen of the tube with an injection of…

🧬 Clinical Pharmacology 203 words ▾

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Mechanism of Action

12.1Mechanism of Action The primary action of ChiRhoStim ® is to stimulate pancreatic ductal cells to secrete pancreas fluid in large volumes that contain bicarbonate. Secretin is a hormone that is normally released from the duodenum upon exposure of the proximal intestinal lumen to gastric acid, fatty acids and amino acids. Secretin is released from enterochromaffin cells in the intestinal mucosa.

Secretin receptors have been identified in the pancreas, stomach, liver, colon and other tissues. When secretin binds to secretin receptors on pancreatic duct cells it opens cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channels, leading to secretion of bicarbonate-rich-pancreatic fluid. Secretin may also work through vagal-vagal neural pathways since stimulation of the efferent vagus nerve stimulates bicarbonate secretion and atropine blocks secretin-stimulated pancreatic secretion.

Pharmacokinetics

12.3Pharmacokinetics The pharmacokinetic profile for synthetic human secretin was evaluated in 12 healthy subjects following a single-dose of human secretin administered as a 0.4 mcg/kg intravenous bolus. The plasma concentrations of human secretin declined to baseline concentrations within 90 to 120 minutes. The elimination half-life of synthetic human secretin is 45 minutes.

The clearance of synthetic human secretin is 580.9 ± 51.3 mL/min and the volume of distribution is 2.7 liters.
