Warnings and Cautions
openFDA Drug Labeling5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity Reactions: Life-threatening or fatal reactions can occur. Always have emergency resuscitation equipment and trained personnel available. ( 5.2 ) Acute Kidney Injury: Acute injury including renal failure can occur. Minimize dose and maintain adequate hydration to minimize risk. ( 5.3 ) Cardiovascular Adverse Reactions: Hemodynamic disturbances including shock and cardiac arrest may occur during or after administration. ( 5.4 ) Thyroid Dysfunction in Pediatric Patients 0 Years to 3 Years of Age: Individualize thyroid function monitoring based on risk factors such as prematurity. ( 5.8 ) 5.1 Risks Associated with Inadvertent Intrathecal Administration IOMERVU is for intra-arterial or intravenous use only and must not be administered intrathecally [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.1 )]. Intrathecal administration, even if inadvertent, can cause death, convulsions, cerebral hemorrhage, coma, paralysis, arachnoiditis, acute renal failure, cardiac arrest, seizures, rhabdomyolysis, hyperthermia, and brain edema. 5.2 Hypersensitivity Reactions IOMERVU can cause life-threatening or fatal hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis. Manifestations include respiratory arrest, laryngospasm, bronchospasm, angioedema, and shock [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.2 )]. Most severe reactions develop shortly after the start of injection (e.g., within 1 to 3 minutes), but delayed reactions can occur. There is an increased risk in patients with a history of a previous reaction to contrast agents, and known allergic disorders (i.e., bronchial asthma, drug, or food allergies) or other hypersensitivities. Premedication with antihistamines or corticosteroids to minimize possible allergic reactions does not prevent serious life-threatening reactions, but may reduce their incidence and severity. Obtain a history of allergy, hypersensitivity, and hypersensitivity reactions to iodinated contrast agents. Always have emergency resuscitation equipment and trained personnel available before use of IOMERVU. Monitor all patients for hypersensitivity reactions. 5.3 Acute Kidney Injury Acute kidney injury, including renal failure, may occur after IOMERVU administration. Risk factors include pre-existing renal impairment, dehydration, diabetes mellitus, heart failure, advanced vascular disease, advanced age, concomitant use of nephrotoxic or diuretic medications, multiple myeloma or other paraproteinemia, and repetitive or large doses of IOMERVU. Use the lowest necessary dose of IOMERVU in patients with renal impairment. Adequately hydrate patients prior to and following IOMERVU administration. Do not use laxatives, diuretics, or preparatory dehydration prior to IOMERVU administration. 5.4 Cardiovascular Adverse Reactions IOMERVU increases the circulatory osmotic load and may induce acute or delayed hemodynamic disturbances in patients with heart failure, severely impaired renal function, combined renal and hepatic disease, or combined renal and cardiac disease, particularly when repetitive or large doses are administered. Life-threatening or fatal cardiovascular reactions including hypotension, shock, and cardiac arrest have occurred with the use of IOMERVU. Most deaths occur within 10 minutes of injection, with cardiovascular disease as the main underlying factor. Cardiac decompensation, serious arrhythmias, and myocardial ischemia or infarction can occur during coronary arteriography and ventriculography. Based upon literature reports, deaths from the administration of iodinated contrast agents range from 6.6 per 1 million (0.00066 percent) to 1 in 10,000 patients (0.01 percent). Use the lowest necessary dose of IOMERVU in patients with heart failure and always have emergency resuscitation equipment and trained personnel available. Monitor all patients for severe cardiovascular reactions. 5.5 Thromboembolic Events Serious, in some cases fatal, thromboembolic events including myocardial infarction and stroke can occur d …

Drug Interactions
openFDA Drug Labeling7 DRUG INTERACTIONS 7.1 Drug-Drug Interactions Metformin Stop metformin at the time of, or prior to, IOMERVU administration in patients with an eGFR between 30 and 60 mL/min/1.73 m 2 ; in patients with a history of hepatic impairment, alcoholism, or heart failure; or in patients who will be administered intra-arterial iodinated contrast agents. Re-evaluate eGFR 48 hours after the imaging procedure, and reinstitute metformin only after renal function is stable. Metformin can cause lactic acidosis in patients with renal impairment. Iodinated contrast agents appear to increase the risk of metformin-induced lactic acidosis, possibly as a result of worsening renal function. Radioactive Iodine Avoid thyroid therapy or testing using radioactive iodine for up to 6 weeks post IOMERVU. Administration of IOMERVU may interfere with thyroid uptake of radioactive iodine (I-131 and I-123) and decrease therapeutic and diagnostic efficacy. 7.2 Drug-Laboratory Test Interactions Protein-Bound Iodine Test Do not perform a protein-bound iodine test for at least 16 days following administration of IOMERVU. Iodinated contrast agents, including IOMERVU, will temporarily increase protein-bound iodine in blood. However, thyroid function tests that do not depend on iodine estimations, e.g., triiodothyronine (T 3 ) resin uptake and total or free thyroxine (T 4 ) assays, are not affected.
Use in Specific Populations
openFDA Drug Labeling8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS Lactation: A lactating woman may pump and discard breast milk for 10 hours after IOMERVU administration. ( 8.2 ) 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Available data from literature and postmarketing reports on iomeprol use in pregnant women over decades have not identified a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. In animal reproduction studies, no adverse developmental outcomes were observed with intravenous administration of iomeprol to pregnant rats and rabbits at doses up to 0.45-times the maximum recommended human dose of 86,000 mg iodine. Animal studies show that iomeprol crosses the placenta ( see Data ). The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defects, loss or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data Embryo-fetal developmental toxicity studies were performed with intravenous administration of iomeprol in rats at daily doses of 600 mg, 1,500 mg, or 4,000 mg iodine/kg (0.07-, 0.17- or 0.45-fold the human equivalent dose (HED, mg/m 2 ) using the maximum human dose of 86,000 mg iodine per administration) from gestation days (GD) 6 to 15 and in rabbits at daily doses of 300 mg, 800 mg, or 2,000 mg iodine/kg (0.07-, 0.18- or 0.45-fold the HED using the maximum human dose of 86,000 mg iodine per administration) from GD 6 to 18. Iomeprol did not result in fetal harm at the highest doses evaluated, 0.45-times the maximum recommended human dose of 86,000 mg iodine. A biodistribution study with a single intravenous administration of 1,000 mg iodine/kg (0.11-fold the HED using the maximum human dose of 86,000 mg iodine per administration) of radiolabeled iomeprol to pregnant rats showed that iomeprol crosses the placenta. No accumulation of radioactivity in fetal tissues was observed. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of iomeprol in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Iomeprol is present in animal milk (see Data) . When a drug is present in animal milk, it is likely that the drug will be present in human milk. Iodinated contrast agents are excreted unchanged in human milk in very low amounts, with poor absorption from the gastrointestinal tract of a breastfed infant. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for IOMERVU and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from IOMERVU or from the underlying maternal condition. Clinical Considerations Interruption of breastfeeding after exposure to iodinated contrast agents is not necessary because the potential exposure of the breastfed infant to iodine is small. However, a lactating woman may consider interrupting breastfeeding and pumping and discarding breast milk for 10 hours (approximately 5 elimination half-lives) after IOMERVU administration to minimize any potential drug exposure to a breastfed infant. Data An animal study with a single intravenous administration of 500 mg iodine/kg (0.06-fold the HED using the maximum human dose of 86,000 mg iodine per administration) of radiolabeled iomeprol to lactating rats showed that iomeprol rapidly distributed into the milk. 8.4 Pediatric Use Intra-arterial Use The safety and effectiveness of IOMERVU have been established in pediatric patients for cerebral, visceral, and peripheral arteriography, aortography including intra-arterial digital subtraction angiography, and radiographic evaluation of cardiac chambers and related arteries. Use of IOMERVU is supported by evidence from adequate and well-controlled studies of IOMERVU in adults, pharmacokinetic data in pediatric patients aged 3 years to 17 years, pharmacokinetic …
Mechanism of Action
openFDA Drug Labeling12.1 Mechanism of Action Iomeprol is a radiographic iodinated contrast agent that opacifies the vessels and body structures where the contrast agent is present following intravenous or intra-arterial administration, permitting radiographic visualization of the internal structures through attenuation of X-ray photons. In imaging of the body, iodinated contrast agents diffuse from the vessels into the extravascular space. In normal brain with an intact blood-brain barrier, the contrast agent does not diffuse into the extravascular space and contrast enhancement is generally due to the presence of contrast within the vascular space. In patients with a disrupted blood-brain barrier, the contrast agent accumulates in the extravascular space in the region of disruption.
