It should also not be used in patients with gastrointestinal bleeding or mechanical obstruction. Additionally, it should not be given to patients with a specific tumor called pheochromocytoma, those with allergic reactions or intolerances to this medication, and patients with liver disease or maniac phases of manic-depressive illness. Caution should be exercised when using this drug in patients with hypertension, children, and older adults, particularly avoiding overdose in children. While taking this medication, one should carefully observe for endocrine disturbances such as amenorrhea, galactorrhea, and gynecomastia as they may occur. Additionally, extrapyramidal symptoms such as tremors, tongue twisting, and anxiety may rarely appear. Long-term use may lead to involuntary movements around the mouth, so caution is advised. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as dry mouth, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation may occur, while cardiovascular symptoms may include hypertension or arrhythmia. Severe neuroleptic malignant syndrome may rarely occur, in which case immediate discontinuation of the drug and emergency treatment are required if symptoms such as high fever, muscle rigidity, or altered consciousness appear. It is advisable to avoid activities requiring attention such as driving or operating machinery while on this medication. Furthermore, drug interactions may occur with certain medications, so it is essential to consult a physician or pharmacist if other medications are being taken. Pregnant or nursing women should not take this medication, and older adults should use it cautiously as renal function decline may increase drug concentration, requiring attention to dosage and administration intervals. Lastly, this drug has emetic effects and may mask or worsen vomiting symptoms due to other conditions, so it is essential to monitor the state while taking it.
