How Iopamidol Works Iopamidol is a radiopaque contrast agent that contains iodine, a substance that absorbs X-rays and enhances the visibility of blood vessels and other non-bony tissues during an X-ray or CT scan.

Expert Advice

  • Keep yourself well hydrated prior to and following Iopamidol administration, as dehydration may lead to acute kidney dysfunction.
  • Inform your doctor if you have a history of liver, kidney, heart, or nervous system disease, overactive thyroid, pheochromocytoma (a high blood pressure state due to a tumor in the gland near the kidney), diabetes, or sickle cell disease (a red blood cell disorder).
  • Seek immediate medical attention if you observe any burning sensation, pain, or swelling at the injection site, or if you experience vomiting or diarrhea after Iopamidol is administered.
  • Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
  • Patients who are allergic to Iopamidol, any of its ingredients, or any other radio-opaque contrast media should not take it.
