    INDICATIONS
    Activated DEFINITY (Perflutren Lipid Microsphere) Injectable Suspension is indicated for use in patients with suboptimal echocardiograms to opacify the left ventricular chamber and to improve the delineation of the left ventricular endocardial border.

    CONTRAINDICATIONS
    Do not administer DEFINITY to patients with known or suspected hypersensitivity to perflutren.

    IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

    WARNING: Serious Cardiopulmonary Reactions

     

    Serious cardiopulmonary reactions, including fatalities, have occurred uncommonly during or following perflutren-containing microsphere administration [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. Most serious reactions occur within 30 minutes of administration.

    • Assess all patients for the presence of any condition that precludes DEFINITY administration [see Contraindications (4)].
    • Always have resuscitation equipment and trained personnel readily available.

    In post marketing use, rare but serious cardiopulmonary or hypersensitivity reactions have been reported during or shortly following perflutren-containing microsphere administration [see Adverse Reactions (6)]. The risk for these reactions may be increased among patients with unstable cardiopulmonary conditions [see Adverse Reactions (6.2)]. It is not always possible to reliably establish a causal relationship to drug exposure due to the presence of underlying cardiopulmonary disease.

    Please see full Prescribing Information, including boxed WARNING regarding serious cardiopulmonary reactions, on www.definityimaging.com.
