Precautions

This medication must be taken under the guidance of a professional to lower blood pressure.

Care should be taken when taking this medication in conjunction with potassium-containing drugs, licorice-containing drugs, or certain diuretics, as this may lead to hypokalemia or muscle problems.

While it may be effective for motor impairment and facial paralysis during the stable phase in stroke patients, there may be no difference for language disorders or consciousness disturbances.
