GASTROMARK SUMMARY
GastroMARK® [ferumoxsil, oral suspension] Mallinckrodt Inc. mL 175 μg Fe/mL
GastroMARK (ferumoxsil, oral suspension) is an aqueous suspension of silicone-coated, superparamagnetic iron oxide, intended for oral administration as a magnetic resonance imaging contrast media.
GastroMARK is indicated in adult patients for oral use with magnetic resonance imaging to enhance the delineation of the bowel to distinguish it from organs and tissues that are adjacent to the upper regions of the gastrointestinal tract.
GastroMARK’s usefulness in the lower gastrointestinal tract and retroperitoneal region is limited (by transit time and dilution).
GastroMARK is not recommended for iron supplementation.
