Expert Advice
- Always keep yourself hydrated before the administration of any contrast media to prevent kidney damage due to dehydration.
- Do not administer iopromide intrathecally (within the layers of the spine).
- Inform your doctor if you have liver, kidney, or heart disease, or if you have had reactions to previous injections of iopromide used for x-ray procedures.
- Inform your doctor if you are diabetic, have cancer, pheochromocytoma (adrenal gland tumor), a blood disorder (such as sickle cell anemia), a thyroid disorder, or a history of seizures (epilepsy), or any blood clotting problems.
- Notify your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
- Patients who are allergic to iopromide or any of its ingredients should not take it.
- Children who have been administered a laxative or are dehydrated due to prolonged fasting should not take iopromide.
