Patients with a history of cardiovascular disease or risk factors should be particularly cautious, and cardiovascular symptoms should be closely monitored during treatment. This medication can cause serious gastrointestinal adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, and perforation. Particularly, elderly patients or those with a history of gastrointestinal disease may be at greater risk and should start at the minimum dose and closely monitor for adverse symptoms. Patients with peptic ulcers, severe blood disorders, liver dysfunction, kidney dysfunction, or heart disease, as well as those with hypersensitivity to this medication or its components, should not take this medication. Additionally, patients with aspirin-induced asthma or those who have had allergic reactions to aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should not be given this medication. Patients with abnormalities in blood, liver, or kidney functions or chronic diseases should use this medication with caution and regularly check for abnormalities. Furthermore, patients with chronic inflammatory diseases should be attentive to changes in liver function test results. This medication can rarely cause serious hypersensitivity reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis, and if such symptoms occur, administration should be stopped immediately and appropriate treatment sought.
