Myodil is a radiocontrast agent manufactured in the UK, which is used in radiography and computed tomography to improve the visualization of soft tissue and vascular structures. This is not a medicine in the usual sense of the word, but a special chemical composition that improves the quality of images. It is used in cases where it is necessary to distinguish small details and fine structures that are usually not visible without it.
The manufacturer of the drug is the British pharmaceutical company Glaxo Wellcome. The main active ingredient is iofendylate (international name). Myodil is available in the form of an injection solution. It can be used alone or in combination with other drugs, such as iodine, to increase the contrast of images. Myodil is intended for adults and is not recommended for use in children under 2 years of age. Before using the drug, you should consult your doctor and read the instructions.
