Precautions

This medication should not be administered to patients with a history of hypersensitivity to its components. Serious allergic reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis may occur during administration, so if symptoms appear, discontinue the medication immediately and seek appropriate treatment. Additionally, there may be a decrease in white blood cell or platelet count, so regular monitoring of blood status is necessary, and administration should be discontinued if abnormalities are found. Liver function may be affected, so liver function tests are also necessary, and immediate discontinuation is required if liver dysfunction or jaundice symptoms occur. Hypersensitivity reactions such as rashes, pruritus, etc., may occur, so the medication should be stopped if these symptoms appear. Neurological symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, and numbness may occur, so caution is advised when driving or operating machinery. Gastrointestinal symptoms may include dry mouth, constipation, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, and abdominal discomfort, so symptoms should be monitored. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should carefully consider the benefits and risks of this medication, as the use may not be safe, and breastfeeding should be avoided since the drug may transfer into breast milk. Safety in children or newborns has not been sufficiently established, so caution is necessary when using it in these populations. Elderly patients may have decreased physical functions, so special attention should be paid to the occurrence of side effects, especially gastrointestinal symptoms.
