6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in the labeling: Hypersensitivity Reactions [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.1 )] Risk Associated with Stress Testing [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] Injection Site Reactions and Tissue Damage [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )] The following adverse reactions associated with the use of Thallous Chloride Tl 201 Injection were identified in clinical studies or postmarketing reports.
Because some of these reactions were reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure: Cardiovascular, respiratory, and cerebrovascular disorders: myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, hypotension, bronchoconstriction, and cerebrovascular events in patients who have undergone stress testing Gastrointestinal disorders: nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea General disorders and administration site conditions: injection site reactions (burning, pain, redness, swelling, warmth, and tissue damage with chronic ulcer formation), chills, fever, and sweating Immune system disorders: hypersensitivity (anaphylaxis, hypotension, shortness of breath, pruritus, flushing, and diffuse rash) The following adverse reactions have been reported.
In patients who have undergone stress testing: myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, hypotension, bronchoconstriction, and cerebrovascular events.
Adverse reactions in other patients: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, injection site reactions, chills, fever, sweating, hypersensitivity (anaphylaxis, hypotension, shortness of breath, pruritus, flushing, diffuse rash).

5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hypersensitivity Reactions: Anaphylactic reactions characterized by cardiovascular, respiratory, and cutaneous symptoms may occur.
Have resuscitation equipment and trained staff readily available.
( 5.1 ) Risk Associated with Stress Testing: Induction of cardiovascular stress may be associated with serious adverse reactions.
Perform stress testing in a setting where cardiac resuscitation equipment and trained staff are readily available.
