4.3 Drug Warning

Isosulfan blue injection 1% is contraindicated in those individuals with known hypersensitivity to triphenylmethane or related compounds.

US Natl Inst Health; DailyMed. Current Medication Information for ISOSULFAN BLUE injection, solution (August 2010). Available from, as of June 8, 2012: https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=1878964e-5220-48c8-a872-dcadbc451aff


Life-threatening anaphylactic reactions (respiratory distress, shock, angioedema) have occurred after isosulfan blue injection 1% administration. Reactions are more likely to occur in patients with a history of bronchial asthma, allergies, drug reactions or previous reactions to triphenylmethane dyes. Monitor patients closely for at least 60 minutes after administration of isosulfan blue injection 1%. Trained personnel should be available to administer emergency care including resuscitation.

Isosulfan blue injection 1% interferes with measurements of oxygen saturation in peripheral blood by pulse oximetry and can cause falsely low readings. The interference effect is maximal at 30 minutes and minimal generally by four hours after administration. Arterial blood gas analysis may be needed to verify decreased arterial partial pressure of oxygen.

Isosulfan blue injection 1% may also cause falsely elevated readings of methemoglobin by arterial blood gas analyzer. Therefore, co-oximetry may be needed to verify methemoglobin level.
