Physical description & handling notes

• Solid
• Soluble in water
• Osmolality 290 mOsm/kg H2O
• Iodixanol is a contrast agent commonly used during coronary angiography, particularly in individuals with renal dysfunction, as it is believed to be less toxic to the kidneys than most other intravascular contrast agents. It is an imaging contrast agent with the same osmolality as blood (290mOsm/kg H20).
• Visipaque
