Why two NDCs? The FDA registers this code as 0019-0862-50 — a 4-4-2 layout, and that's what's printed on the package and shown on DailyMed. For insurance claims, every NDC is standardized to a uniform 11-digit 5-4-2 format by adding a zero to the labeler segment → 00019-0862-50. Same drug, same package — only the format differs.

Where does this data come from?
Data sourced from official FDA Structured Product Labeling (SPL) via DailyMedingredient classCode="IACT" elements from the exact product block matched by this NDC. Label-section narrative from DailyMed / the openFDA label index is shown separately when available.

Inactive ingredient FAQ

Are inactive ingredients the same for every manufacturer?
No. Inactive ingredients can differ by manufacturer, dosage form, strength, and package / product version.
Why might an inactive ingredient be missing?
Some SPLs do not provide a complete structured inactive-ingredient list, and older or unusual labels may only include the information in narrative text.
Can inactive ingredients matter?
Yes. They can matter for allergies, intolerances, dyes, gluten / lactose concerns, preservatives, and formulation differences — but confirm with a pharmacist or the manufacturer when it’s clinically important.

💲 Pricing

A drug doesn't have one price. Each row is a different public payment system, and none is what you'd pay at the counter — that depends on your insurance. The ⓘ on each row explains what it measures.

Price systemPer eachPer package
Retail pharmacies payNADAC · weekly Not in the retail survey — common for institutional, discontinued, or low-volume packs.
Medicaid paysCMS SDUD · 12 mo No recent Medicaid claims on file for this NDC — rare and low-volume NDCs are suppressed in the public data.
Medicare drug plans payPart D · quarterly No Part D plan price is available for this NDC in our data.
Medicare Part B allowsASP · Q9958 $0.077 / Q9958 unit
Where does this data come from?
NADAC (National Average Drug Acquisition Cost) is the CMS weekly pharmacy-acquisition-cost survey — what pharmacies pay. ASP (Average Sales Price) is the CMS Medicare Part B drug-payment file, published quarterly. Medicaid pays is computed by us from CMS State Drug Utilization Data (total reimbursed ÷ units, trailing 12 months) — gross of rebates and inclusive of dispensing fees, so it reflects what Medicaid paid, not an acquisition cost. Medicare drug plans pay is the median negotiated point-of-sale unit cost across plans listing this NDC in the CMS quarterly Prescription Drug Plan pricing files, before rebates. The VA pays is the federal contract price (FSS, and the statutory Big 4 ceiling where listed) from the VA National Acquisition Center pharmaceutical price file. All are free public government data; each measures a different payer, so the figures are not directly comparable.

Questions about this listing

Why is there no price listed?
The pricing shown on our NDC pages comes from CMS NADAC, a voluntary survey of retail community pharmacy invoices. CMS does not publish a NADAC for every NDC — packages outside the retail survey (institutional and hospital products, bulk packages, discontinued items, and many OTC items) may never receive one. A missing price reflects the survey's scope, not this product's actual cost, and does not mean the product is free or unavailable.
Is the NDC printed on the package the same as the 11-digit billing NDC?
Yes, they identify this exact package in different formats. The FDA registers it as 0019-0862-50, which is what is printed on the packaging and shown on DailyMed. Insurance claims use a fixed 11-digit 5-4-2 format, so the short segment is padded with a leading zero: 00019-0862-50, written without dashes as 00019086250. The Identity section at the top of this page lists every form of this code.
What do the three segments of this NDC mean?
In 00019-0862-50, the first segment (00019) is the labeler code FDA assigned to Liebel-Flarsheim Company LLC; the middle segment (0862) identifies this specific product — its ingredient, strength, and dosage form; and the last segment (50) identifies this exact package size and type. Together they name one specific package of one specific product.
Is this package still being marketed?
Yes, per the latest FDA NDC Directory data on this page: this package is listed as actively marketed, with no marketing end date reported by Liebel-Flarsheim Company LLC. Listing status can change — the directory data on this page refreshes weekly.
Who lists this product with the FDA?
Liebel-Flarsheim Company LLC is the labeler of record for this NDC — the company under whose FDA-assigned code the package is listed. The labeler may be the manufacturer itself or a distributor marketing the product under its own code.
Do I need a prescription for this product?
This NDC is listed with FDA as a prescription product, so it is dispensed under a prescriber's order. Your pharmacist can tell you whether any over-the-counter forms of the same medication exist.
Does this product have a billing J-code?
Yes — this NDC cross-references HCPCS code Q9958 for medical-claim billing (typically used when a product is administered in a clinical setting rather than dispensed at a retail pharmacy). See the Billing section on this page.
This page identifies an FDA-listed package (the NDC) and reports public regulatory and pricing data about the listing. It is reference information, not a medical recommendation — talk to your pharmacist or prescriber about your own medication.
Where does this data come from?

🚨 Boxed Warning 8 words

NOT FOR INTRAVASCULAR ADMINISTRATION NOT FOR INTRATHECAL USE

🎯 Indications and Usage 14 words

INDICATIONS AND USAGE Cysto-Conray II is indicated for use in retrograde cystography and cystourethrography.

⏱️ Dosage and Administration 192 words

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Patient Preparation Unless contraindicated, an appropriate laxative is given the night before the examination. Radiographic Technique The radiographic procedure normally employed for cystography and cystourethrography should be employed. A preliminary radiograph is recommended before the contrast agent is administered.

Administration Sterile catherization is essential. Cysto-Conray II may be introduced by gravity flow using an appropriate venoclysis set or by syringe. Excessive pressure should be avoided with any method of administration.

Usual Dosage Cystography and Cystourethrography – Either Conray 43 supplied at 43% w/v or Cysto-Conray II supplied at a 17.2% w/v concentration may be used for these procedures. The desired concentration will vary depending upon the patient’s size and age and also with the technique and equipment used. (SEE CONRAY 43 PACKAGE INSERT FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT.) Sufficient volume of contrast medium is administered to adequately fill the urinary bladder.

The volume of solution required will vary depending upon the individual patient. Adults usually require a volume in the range of 200 to 400 mL. Children require a volume in proportion to their body size.

The usual dose ranges from 30 to 300 mL.

Contraindications 7 words

CONTRAINDICATIONS See WARNINGS concerning inadvertant intrathecal administration.

⚠️ Warnings 69 words

WARNINGS SEVERE ADVERSE EVENTS – INADVERTENT INTRATHECAL ADMINISTRATION: Serious adverse reactions have been reported due to the inadvertent intrathecal administration of iodinated contrast media that are not indicated for intrathecal use. These serious adverse reactions include: death, convulsions, cerebral hemorrhage, coma, paralysis, arachnoiditis, acute renal failure, cardiac arrest, seizures, rhabdomyolysis, hyperthermia, and brain edema. Special attention must be given to ensure that this drug product is not administered intrathecally.

🤒 Adverse Reactions 103 words

ADVERSE REACTIONS Irritation of the bladder or ureter, common to some degree to all contrast media administered for retrograde urographic procedures, may occasionally occur. As with all contrast media, intravasation may lead to hypersensitivity reactions such as a sense of warmth, flushing, sneezing, sweating, chills, fever, urticaria, laryngeal edema, bronchospasm, hypertension, hypotension, cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Adverse reactions associated with procedural technique include injury to the urethra, bladder, ureter, and introduction of infection.

In the event of serious or anaphylactoid reactions, it should be kept in mind that the reactions known to occur with intravenous administration of radiopaque contrast materials are possible.

🔄 Drug / Laboratory Test Interactions 44 words

Drug/Laboratory Test Interaction Thyroid Function Tests – If indicated, these tests generally should be performed prior to the administration of any iodinated agent. However, thyroid function can be evaluated after use of these agents by using T 3 resin uptake or free thyroxine assays.

🤰 Pregnancy 50 words

Use in Pregnancy Category C. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with Cysto-Conray II. It is also not known whether this drug can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Cysto-Conray II should be used in pregnant women only if clearly needed.

🧬 Clinical Pharmacology 83 words

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY The most important characteristic of contrast media is the iodine content. The relatively high atomic weight of iodine contributes sufficient radiodensity for radiographic contrast. Following instillation by sterile catheter, Cysto-Conray II provides for visualization of the lower urinary tract.

Clinical literature reports indicate that routinely less than 1 percent of a retrograde urographic radiopaque is absorbed systemically, however, as much as 12 percent absorption was observed with pyelorenal back flow and may produce iodine medicated thyrotropic effects described under PRECAUTIONS .
