  • Title: Intrathecal dextrose to prevent seizures after metrizamide myelography in dogs.
    Author: Northington JW, Biery DN, Glickman LT.
    Journal: Invest Radiol; 1982; 17(3):282-3. PubMed ID: 6749752.
    Abstract:
    Seizures are possible complications of metrizamide myelography. The protective effect (as measured by reduction in seizure incidence) of dextrose in solution with metrizamide was studied by conducting a double-blind trail. Fourteen dogs each had two myelograms at five- to 16-day intervals in a crossover study, while ten additional dogs each had a single myelogram. Metrizamide alone and metrizamide in dextrose were used for the myelograms. No significant protective effect of dextrose was found.
