This drug should not be administered to patients with bleeding due to the risk of worsening the bleeding. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant are also advised not to take this medication as it may be harmful to the fetus. Caution should be exercised when administering to women during menstruation or patients with a tendency to bleed, as bleeding may worsen. Patients taking anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents may need to be careful as the risk of bleeding may increase. Patients with severely impaired kidney function and the elderly should be monitored closely when using this drug. During the use of this medication, any signs of bleeding or liver dysfunction should be observed carefully, and if abnormal symptoms occur, the doctor should be consulted immediately. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, or hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rash and itching may occur; in such cases, the medication should be discontinued and healthcare providers should be notified. It is important to have regular blood tests to monitor the condition of the body. If taken in conjunction with anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents, the risk of bleeding increases, so consultation with a physician is mandatory. Pregnant or breastfeeding women are ideally advised not to take this drug, and if unavoidable, it is recommended to discontinue breastfeeding.
