Nephrotoxicity
This medicine may affect the kidneys.
Gadoxetic acid is a contrast agent used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), particularly for liver evaluation. It contains gadolinium, a metal that helps improve the clarity of MRI images.
It is commonly used for diagnosing liver lesions, including tumors or other hepatic conditions. Administration is done intravenously, and the substance is eliminated from the body through the kidneys and liver.
Side effects are rare but may include nausea, headaches, or allergic reactions. In patients with severe renal impairment, there is a very small risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis.
Patients should inform their doctor about any kidney or liver conditions before administration. The use of this contrast agent should be supervised by a specialist to minimize risks.
