Ioglicic acid is a pharmaceutical drug that was used as an iodinated contrast medium for X-ray imaging, in form of its salt meglumine ioglicate. Uses included imaging of the brain,[1] the aorta and femoral arteries,[2] and the urinary system (an examination called intravenous urography).[3]
It is not known to be marketed anywhere in the world in 2021.
