RX mirror: this is not independent corroboration of its underlying label. Check dated-label and formulation limitations.
Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
The source prohibits administration in acute kidney injury or chronic severe kidney disease with GFR below 30 because of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis risk. Assess kidney function and acute-risk circumstances before administration. Avoid exceeding the recommended dose and allow adequate elimination before repeat exposure. Dialysis clearance information is pharmacokinetic evidence, not permission to use a contraindicated agent or proof that dialysis prevents fibrosis. This restriction is specific to the retrieved MAGNEVIST source; a different agent's lower-risk classification cannot be substituted for it.
