Who Supplies OMNIPAQUE 240?
OMNIPAQUE 240 is a brand of iodinated contrast media (non-ionic, low-osmolar) used for X-ray imaging. Supply is defined by the drug’s marketing authorization holder (MAH), the manufacturer(s) named for OMNIPAQUE 240 in regulatory filings, and the label-specified contact and logistics network in each market.
What is OMNIPAQUE 240’s regulatory/brand supply chain structure?
OMNIPAQUE 240 is typically distributed in markets through:
- MAH (marketing authorization holder) that controls brand release and regulatory obligations
- Primary manufacturer(s) that produce the drug substance and/or final drug product
- Secondary packer/distributor entities (in some markets) that manage packaging, labeling, and release
Because “suppliers” can mean different roles (MAH vs. manufacturer vs. distributor), buyers normally validate supply using:
- the SmPC/label for the exact marketed product in the target country
- the EU/UK product information that lists manufacturer and batch-release contacts
- the US label (if applicable) that lists the manufacturer and responsible party
No market or jurisdiction was provided. Without a jurisdiction, listing “the” suppliers risks mixing different MAH/manufacturer combinations across countries.

Non-exhaustive example set of supplier types (not a definitive list)
For OMNIPAQUE (iohexol) products, companies commonly involved in the product lifecycle across regions include the GE Healthcare / GE Healthcare HealthCare (historically) group entities and related manufacturing networks for contrast media, but exact named suppliers vary by country and formulation strength (240 mg I/mL).
Market-specific supplier identification
OMNIPAQUE 240 suppliers must be confirmed against the exact marketed product in the relevant jurisdiction because manufacturers and packers can differ by:
- country registration
- container type (vials/syringes) and pack size
- whether the local site performs final labeling/packaging vs. only distribution
What should procurement teams require from “suppliers of OMNIPAQUE 240”?
For a defensible vendor list, procurement should obtain:
- Manufacturer name as printed in the product label / SmPC
- MAH name as printed in regulatory documentation
- GMP release site(s) for finished product (batch release)
- Distribution/packaging entity in-country (if applicable)
- Confirmation the vendor supplies OMNIPAQUE 240 (iohexol 240 mg I/mL), not another strength (for example, 300 or 350) or a different iohexol brand
Key Takeaways
- “Suppliers for OMNIPAQUE 240” depends on jurisdiction and the definition of supplier role (MAH vs finished-product manufacturer vs local distributor/packer).
- The only procurement-grade supplier list comes from the label/SmPC for the specific OMNIPAQUE 240 product in the target country.
- Without a target market, any single supplier list risks being inaccurate across countries.
FAQs
-
Is OMNIPAQUE 240 supplied by the same manufacturer in all countries?
No. Manufacturer and packer details can vary by national registration and packaging requirements.
-
Who is the “supplier” to list for regulatory submissions: MAH or manufacturer?
Regulatory submissions typically require the MAH for authorization status and the finished-product manufacturer(s) for GMP and batch-release traceability.
-
Does OMNIPAQUE 240 have multiple strengths from the same supply chain?
Yes. OMNIPAQUE includes multiple concentrations of iohexol; supplier identity can change by strength and packaging format.
-
Can a local distributor be the supplier even if the product is manufactured elsewhere?
Yes for logistics, but batch-release and GMP responsibility usually ties to the named manufacturer on the label/SmPC.
-
What document best confirms the correct OMNIPAQUE 240 supplier?
The product label and SmPC/PIL for the specific jurisdiction and presentation.
