This medication should not be used in certain patients. Firstly, individuals who have previously experienced allergic reactions to this medication or its ingredients should not take it. Additionally, patients with orthostatic hypotension, severely impaired liver function, and women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should also avoid this medication. When using this medication, it should be administered with caution to patients with severely decreased kidney function, elderly patients, and patients taking certain blood pressure medications or other medications. In particular, caution is needed when used in conjunction with antihypertensive drugs, PDE5 inhibitors, or CYP3A4 inhibitors, as interactions can lead to increased side effects. This medication can lower blood pressure, potentially leading to danger in case of overdose, and dizziness or orthostatic hypotension may occur upon standing, so caution is advised. Serious side effects such as syncope or loss of consciousness may occur during use, and if symptoms arise, the patient should immediately stop taking the medication and consult a healthcare professional. Additionally, various side effects such as dizziness, headache, drowsiness, low blood pressure, skin rash, and indigestion can occur, so any unusual symptoms should be reported. This medication is not suitable for children or women, and elderly patients should start with a low dose and increase it gradually for safety. When taking, do not chew or open the capsules; take them as they come from the package, and if in an orally disintegrating form, it is safe to take with water.
