Additionally, it should not be administered to patients with abnormally distended or impaired intestinal function. Patients who have an allergic reaction to this medication should avoid its use. This drug is also unsuitable for patients with very poor liver function. Since this medication contains lactose, patients with a genetic condition that prevents lactose breakdown should not take it. Caution is required when administering this drug to patients with glaucoma or benign prostatic hyperplasia. Although this medication does not have anticholinergic effects, care should be taken in these cases. Taking this medication may result in symptoms such as dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Furthermore, if allergic symptoms such as itching or rash occur, medication should be discontinued immediately. Patients taking antihypertensive medications should be cautious as using this drug in high doses may lower blood pressure too much. Pregnant women should only take this medication under the supervision of a physician if absolutely necessary, as no significant problems were found in animal studies.
