A nurse or other trained health professional will give you this medicine. You will swallow the barium liquid or paste just before your scan or procedure.

Drink plenty of liquids after the test to help clear the barium from your body and to keep you hydrated. Barium may cause severe constipation.

Follow all instructions you are given for your scan or procedure. Your doctor may tell you not to eat or drink anything the night before your test. Barium will work better if your stomach and bowels are empty.

This medicine is not right for everyone. You should not receive it if you had an allergic reaction to barium, or if you have stomach or bowel problems, including blockage, perforation, bleeding, injury, ischemia, severe ileus, toxic megacolon, or recent surgery, trauma, or radiation treatment on the hip area.

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you have asthma, cancer, heart disease, trouble swallowing, an allergy to other contrast agents, or a history of fructose intolerance (genetic disease). Tell your doctor about any stomach or bowel problems, including diverticulitis, fistula, stenosis, or ulcer.

This medicine may cause constipation, which could be severe.
