View approved original text

In cases where there is thirst, decreased urine output, and constipation along with symptoms of urticaria and stomatitis, these symptoms may be related to dehydration and allergic reactions. Thirst, decreased urine output, and constipation are primarily associated with dehydration or impaired digestive function, while urticaria and stomatitis can occur due to allergy or inflammatory responses. Treatment focusing on hydration, allergy management, and inflammation reduction is essential for these symptoms. Therefore, medications used for these symptoms help restore fluid balance in the body, reduce allergic responses, and alleviate inflammation.

Precautions

This medication contains lactose, so individuals with lactose intolerance or genetic conditions such as galactosemia, lactose enzyme deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not take it. Women who are pregnant or might become pregnant should avoid it due to risks of miscarriage or preterm labor caused by uterine contractions and pelvic congestion. Furthermore, breastfeeding women should either avoid taking this medication or stop breastfeeding as the ingredients can be transmitted through breast milk and cause diarrhea in the infant. Do not take this medication alongside other diarrhea-inducing medications. Individuals with diarrhea or loose stools, weak stomachs, or symptoms like loss of appetite, nausea, or vomiting should consult a professional before taking this medication. It is also safe for individuals who are very weak, taking other medications, elderly, or children to consult with a professional before using this medication. If symptoms such as loss of appetite, gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, or diarrhea occur during usage, or if rare symptoms of liver dysfunction (general fatigue, yellowing of skin or eyes) appear, stop taking the medication immediately and consult a professional. If symptoms do not improve after one week of use, discontinue use and seek advice. It is essential to adhere to the prescribed dosage and administration, and caution is necessary as the laxative effect of Daehwang varies significantly among individuals. Prolonged use of stimulant laxatives can lead to tolerance and worsen constipation, so it should not be taken for more than one week, and the cause should be investigated if daily laxatives are required. Care should be taken to avoid overlap of ingredients when taking this medication alongside other herbal medicines, especially products containing Daehwang. This medication should be stored in a cool place away from direct sunlight and moisture, and must be secured tightly after use. It should be kept out of the reach of children and should not be transferred to other containers for safety.
