Iohexol compared to urografin meglumine in cerebral angiography. A randomized, double blind cross-over study. 1982

P Ahlgren

In a double blind cross-over study the non ionic, water soluble contrast medium iohexol has been compared to Urografin Meglumine by angiography in common carotid artery and vertebral artery. More subjective adverse effects were generally seen with Urografin than with iohexol and statistically there were significantly less changes in heart rate after iohexol but no significant changes in the intra-arterial recorded blood pressure.

D007463	Iodobenzoates	Benzoic acid esters or salts substituted with one or more iodine atoms.	Iodobenzoic Acids,Acids, Iodobenzoic
D007472	Iohexol	An effective non-ionic, water-soluble contrast agent which is used in myelography, arthrography, nephroangiography, arteriography, and other radiographic procedures. Its low systemic toxicity is the combined result of low chemotoxicity and low osmolality.	Compound 545,Exypaque,Iohexol 350,Nycodenz,Omnipaque
