What is the reaction to iodine allergy?

Hello Ms., If you have never had an examination with an iodinated contrast material administered, it is impossible to know if you are allergic. However, reactions are usually mild and can range from redness and itching to the appearance of pimples. These reactions usually pass on their own. In rare cases, the reactions can be more severe, but this is very rare. I hope this has reassured you before undergoing this examination. Have a nice day.
