How Lopidam works
Lopidam is a radiopaque contrast agent. It contains iodine, a substance that absorbs x-rays and makes blood vessels and other non-bony tissues appear more clearly during an X-ray or CT scan.
What if you forget to take Lopidam?
Not applicable. Lopidam is given before imaging test, so it is important to take it at the time as advised by the doctor. If you miss the dose, your test results can be inaccurate.
