This medication can increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding for individuals who regularly consume more than three cups of alcohol daily, so it is essential to consult a doctor or pharmacist. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including this medication may increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke in patients with heart or vascular issues or risk factors. During treatment, blood pressure control may become challenging, so individuals with high blood pressure or heart function problems need to be particularly cautious. Due to potential serious issues such as gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, or perforations, elderly patients or those on long-term treatment should carefully monitor their gastrointestinal condition. Individuals with a history of gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding, or severely impaired liver, kidney, or heart function should avoid taking this medication. Patients with bronchial asthma or who have had allergic reactions to aspirin or other anti-inflammatory medications should also avoid its use. This medication should not be taken during the late stages of pregnancy as it may harm the fetus; breastfeeding individuals should consider stopping breastfeeding or discontinuing the medication. Do not exceed the recommended dosage and do not take it with other NSAIDs. Individuals with blood disorders or a tendency to bleed, or with liver or kidney problems, must consult with a specialist before taking this medication. Those who take low-dose aspirin should be cautious, as this medication may interfere with the effects of aspirin. This medication may interact with certain drugs; those taking ACE inhibitors, lithium, diuretics, methotrexate, anticoagulants, or selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors should consult with a specialist. If symptoms such as skin rash, difficulty breathing, severe headaches, vision changes, abdominal pain, blood in stools, swelling, or jaundice occur, stop taking the medication immediately and consult a doctor. Take this medication for the shortest time possible at the lowest effective dose, and undergo regular checks for liver, kidney, and blood conditions during long-term use.
