If you experience abnormal symptoms such as decreased urine output, severe swelling of the face or extremities, elevated blood pressure, headaches, weakness, limb cramps, skin rashes, itching, indigestion, or diarrhea while taking this medicine, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. Moreover, it is important to stop taking the medicine and consult a doctor or pharmacist if symptoms do not improve after a few days. This medicine should not be taken long-term; if long-term use is necessary, it should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional. Caution is also warranted if taken with potassium-containing products or medications containing licorice, as this may cause hypokalemia or myopathy. It is essential to adhere to the prescribed dosage and frequency, and be mindful to avoid overlap in ingredients when taking other herbal medicines.
