High risk of anaphylaxis from these?

I came to this page because I had a moderately severe anaphylactic reaction to an Iopamidol contrast agent during the one and only time I had it for a kidney X-ray in 1986, despite the radiologist doctor du jour doing the right thing at the time and confirming that I did not have an allergy to shellfish (apparently high in iodine). I have since discovered that these reactions were common, and as a result Iodine based contrast agents stopped being used shortly after that time, replaced by much safer chelated Gadolinium.

This is already covered, and very well, in MRI contrast agent. Maybe there should be a link from this Iopamidol page to that one? And/or vice versa? 124.184.176.86 (talk) 12:26, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Me again. six years later. Uhh, you talk about MRI agents, but this for an X-ray. Does that make a difference? Will I need to wait another six years to get an answer. Ha ha. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.168.4.127 (talk) 10:47, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
