Breastfeeding women should avoid this medication as it may be transmitted through breast milk. The safety of this medication has not been sufficiently confirmed for children, especially low-birth-weight infants, newborns, and young children, so caution is needed. Elderly individuals may have decreased bodily functions, which can lead to gastrointestinal side effects occurring more frequently, so they should exercise caution.
