How is ferumoxsil used?
Ferumoxsil is a liquid that you will be asked to drink before your MRI is performed.
Ferumoxsil must be taken on an empty stomach. You will need to fast (not eat or drink anything) for at least 4 hours before you take this medicine.
In some cases, the MRI will be done within 30 minutes after you drink the ferumoxsil. However, you may be asked to drink the liquid several hours before your MRI. Follow your doctor's instructions.
