Fresenius Kabi launches its first generic contrast media agent in the U.S.

Iodixanol Injection, a radiographic contrast agent, is now available from Fresenius Kabi in the United States. It is the first FDA-approved generic iso-osmolar, dimeric iodinated contrast media agent, which is used during diagnostic x-ray-based imaging such as computed tomography (CT) scans. The launch represents the first move of Fresenius Kabi North America into radiology, another key area of the hospital.
