Additionally, the maximum daily allowable dose of aspartame should be limited below the WHO recommended level, using only the minimum possible amount. Patients with a history of allergic reactions or shock to this medication, those with carnitine deficiency, or those who are hypersensitive to milk proteins should not use it.

Additionally, this medication can affect liver and blood test results with long-term use, so regular testing is necessary. To prevent the development of resistant bacteria, sensitivity should be confirmed, and it should only be used for the necessary minimum duration, with prior verification of any past drug allergies.
