Does isovue 60 ml cause kidney failure?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not in Normal people: Patients with compromised kidney function are the only one suffer this complication. Enough fluid intake before and after administration of isovue will help on those patients. A person with normal function should not worry up to 150 ml of Isovue injection.

Usually not: Isovue is a type of iodinated contrast used in angiography, CT scans, and interventional procedures. It is mainly eliminated from your body in your urine. It should be used with caution or not used in patients with decreased kidney function or if your kidney is not functioning properly. It is generally safe to use with normal kidney function as long as you do not have an allergy to the agent.
