Lipiodol Ultra Fluid Injection is an iodized oily contrast medium used in diagnostic imaging to enhance the visualization of internal structures during certain procedures. It is particularly indicated for use in lymphography, hysterosalpingography (HSG) in women undergoing infertility evaluation, and sialography. Some individuals may experience side effects such as skin redness, rash, itching, hypotension (low blood pressure), runny nose, or eye irritation.
Lipiodol Ultra Fluid Injection is a diagnostic agent used to improve the contrast in images during radiological exams, helping to visualize better and define specific areas of the body. Radiological examinations use imaging techniques like X-rays, CT scans, MRI, or ultrasound to view the inside of the body for diagnostic purposes.
Lipiodol Ultra Fluid Injection contains ethyl esters of iodized fatty acids derived from poppy seed oil. It enhances tissue visibility by making it appear darker or brighter depending on the test, which helps doctors identify any abnormalities. The iodine content in the medication enhances X-ray absorption, leading to better visualization of body tissues or structures.
In some cases, this medicine may cause side effects like skin redness, rash, itching, hypotension (low blood pressure), runny nose, or eye irritation. The majority of these side effects may not require medical treatment and will subside with time. However, if any of these side effects persist or worsen, consult a doctor.
Lipiodol Ultra Fluid Injection should not be used if you are allergic to it. Inform your doctor about any other medications or herbal products you are taking. Before starting treatment with Lipiodol Ultra Fluid Injection, tell your doctor if you have allergies, asthma, lung or heart diseases, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, uterine bleeding, pelvic inflammation, or kidney disease. Do not use this medicine for hysterosalpingography if you are pregnant, near your menstrual period, or within 30 days after curettage or conization.
