"I have normal kidney functions. After an MRI with Eovist, immediately after it, I had dizziness, followed by headache, neck joint pain, and pain in the joints of my arms, legs, and lower back. Also, high blood pressure for two days, which I had never had before. I went to the ER twice. I am still in pain 9 days later. Stay away from it!"

"I believe this is the safest MRI contrast currently marketed. It is a 4th generation contrast with a dual excretion pathway, and as far as I know, there are no known cases of NSF associated with this. The few minor side effects I have seen are similar to placebo. The key is the low dose of gadolinium and the 4th generation liver excretion, which makes this safe in patients with renal compromise and still have normal liver function."

"Had an incidental finding of a liver lesion that my local hospital could not classify with an ultrasound and 2 gadolinium MRIs. They recommended a biopsy. I got a second opinion from Emory Hospital. I learned that the Eovist contrast is the best for examining liver lesions and is specifically indicated. Thankfully, my Eovist MRI provided an adenoma diagnosis that can be watched with no surgery or biopsy required. I go every six months and have no side effects from this testing (I do not have liver disease). There’s no burning, no stinging, no negative effects for me."

"I had this on May 18. It is now June 26. I am still feeling uncontrollable anxiety. I have been to the hospital twice, where they have had to monitor my heart. Do not recommend."
