Pharmacotherapeutic group: X-ray contrast media, barium sulfate with suspending agents
ATC code: V08BA01
The active constituent of E-Z-HD, barium sulfate, is inert and has no pharmacological action. It serves only as a radiopaque substance to opacify the gastro-intestinal tract during X-ray examinations.
Under physiological conditions, barium sulfate passes through the gastrointestinal tract in an unchanged form and is absorbed only in small, pharmacologically insignificant amounts.
There are no preclinical data of relevance to the prescriber which are additional to that already included elsewhere in the SPC.
