  • WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
  • Cardiac Arrhythmias
  • Cardiac arrhythmias have been observed in patients receiving MultiHance in clinical trials [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. Assess patients for underlying conditions or medications that predispose to arrhythmias.
  • A double-blind, placebo-controlled, 24-hour post dose continuous monitoring, crossover study in 47 subjects evaluated the effect of 0.2 mmol/kg MultiHance on ECG intervals, including QTc. The average changes in QTc values compared with placebo were minimal (<5 msec). QTc prolongation between 30 and 60 msec were noted in 20 subjects who received MultiHance vs. 11 subjects who received placebo. Prolongations ≥61 msec were noted in 6 subjects who received MultiHance and in 3 subjects who received placebo. None of these subjects had associated malignant arrhythmias. The effects on QTc by MultiHance dose, other drugs, and medical conditions were not systematically studied.
  • ADVERSE REACTIONS
  • Clinical Trials Experience
  • Investigations: Nonspecific changes in laboratory tests (including hematology, blood chemistry, liver enzymes and urinalysis), blood pressure and electrocardiogram parameters (including PR, QRS and QT intervals and ST-T segment changes).
