If, after taking this medicine, urine volume decreases, or swelling occurs in the face, hands, or feet, or eyelids become heavy, fingers stiffen, blood pressure rises, or headaches develop, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. The glycyrrhizin component in this medicine can cause side effects such as hypokalemia, increased blood pressure, fluid retention, swelling, and weight gain if taken in excessive amounts over a long period, so regular blood tests are required. Symptoms such as muscle weakness, limb cramps, or paralysis may occur due to hypokalemia, so if these symptoms present, discontinue use. If gastrointestinal symptoms such as anorexia, stomach discomfort, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, or diarrhea occur, stop taking the medicine and seek advice. The risk of side effects increases when taken with potassium-containing medications, glycyrrhizin-containing products, or specific diuretics, so caution is advised. The diarrhea-inducing effect of rhubarb varies from person to person, so the prescribed method of use and dosage must be strictly adhered to. Stimulant laxatives should not be used continuously for more than a week, as their effectiveness decreases and constipation can worsen. If constipation persists, its cause should be identified.
