5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis and urticaria have occurred. Always have cardiopulmonary resuscitation personnel and equipment readily available and monitor patients. ( 5.1 ) 5.1 Hypersensitivity Reactions Hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis, urticaria and deaths due to anaphylaxis have been reported following intravenous administration of indocyanine green [see Adverse Reactions ( 6 )]. Indocyanine green is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to indocyanine green [see Contraindications ( 4 )] . Always have cardiopulmonary resuscitation personnel and equipment readily available and monitor all patients for hypersensitivity reactions. 5.2 Interference with Thyroid Radioactive Iodine Uptake Studies Because indocyanine green contains sodium iodide, the iodine-binding capacity of thyroid tissue may be reduced for at least one week following administration [see Drug Interactions ( 7 )].
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] . The following adverse reactions have been identified during post-approval use of indocyanine green. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure. Immune System Disorders : Anaphylaxis, urticaria The most common adverse reactions reported are anaphylaxis and urticaria.
