Précautions et mises en garde : For professional use only. Do not store after mixing. Diagnostic procedures that involve the use of radiopaque contrast agents should be carried out under the direction of personnel with the requisite training and with a thorough knowledge of the particular procedure to be performed. A history of bronchial asthma, atopy, as evidenced by hay fever and eczema, or a previous reaction to a contrast agent, warrant special attention. Caution should be excerised with the use of radiopaque media in severly debilitated patients and in those with marked hypertension or advanced cardiac disease. Ingestion of barium is not recommended in patients with a history of food aspiration. If barium swallow studies are required in these patients or in patients in whom integrity of the swallowing mechanism is unknown, proceed with caution. Administer initially small amounts such as a half-teaspoon of low-density barium and carefully observe swallowing under fluoroscopic control. If barium is aspired into the larynx, further administartion of barium should be immediately discontinued. If no aspiration is noted, additional barium may be given with continued fluoroscopic monitoring for aspiration. After any barium study of the G.I. tract, it is important to rehydrate the patient as quickly as possible to prevent impaction of barium. To prevent barium impaction, the colon may also require the use of cathartics following the completion of the examination. Saline cathartics are recommended on a routine basis and especially in patients with a history of constipation unless clinically contraindicated. Usage in Pregnancy: Radiation is known to cause harm to the unborn fetus exposed in utero. Therefore, radiographic procedures should only be used when, in the judgement of the physician, its use is deemed essential to the welfare of the pregnant patient. Safe use of barium sulfate in pregnant is not established.
