Precautions

This drug should not be used in patients with cardiogenic shock, patients with left heart failure accompanied by hypovolemia, and patients with low blood pressure. Additionally, it should be avoided in individuals with allergic reactions to this drug or those with unusual sensitivities. Taking this medication together with phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE-5) inhibitors such as Sildenafil Citrate, Vardenafil hydrochloride, and Tadalafil may cause a risk of dangerously low blood pressure, so they should not be taken together. Patients with glaucoma, severe liver dysfunction, acute pulmonary edema, and the elderly should use this medication with extra caution. While taking this medication, symptoms such as headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, facial flushing, and fatigue may occur. Serious side effects such as liver dysfunction, jaundice, thrombocytopenia, or severe conditions like stomatitis or ulcers may develop; if any abnormal symptoms occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional. Additionally, during the medication period, it is advisable to refrain from driving or operating hazardous machinery, and since vasodilation may cause headaches, if symptoms are severe, the dosage should be adjusted or discontinued. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant are advised not to use this medication, and it is preferable to avoid it during breastfeeding or to discontinue breastfeeding while taking it. Safety in pediatric patients has not been established; thus, it is recommended not to administer this drug to children. Elderly patients should begin with a lower dose and be administered with caution as they may have decreased physical function and may experience adverse reactions more easily. In case of overdose, vasodilation may lead to low blood pressure and rapid heart rate, requiring immediate monitoring of cardiac function in a hospital and necessary treatment.
