Barium most commonly causes constipation. It is rare for some people to become intolerant to the barium and throw up. It's also rare for the barium solution to aspirate into the lungs.
Barium studies should not be performed on pregnant patients, individuals with a possible gastrointestinal perforation, patients with a severe bowel obstruction, or patients with severe swallowing difficulties (as this could increase the risk of aspiration).
Your stool (faeces) will appear white from the barium for one to three days following the test. Barium can harden and obstruct your digestive tract if it remains there. You might need to take a laxative to help you pass stool if you become constipated. In certain circumstances, you might be asked to return the following day for additional X-rays.
Muscle weakness and gastrointestinal problems can result from consuming drinking water with barium levels above the EPA drinking water guidelines for brief periods of time. Long-term high level consumption can harm the kidneys.
