Those with hypersensitivity to histamine H2-receptor antagonists should not take this medication due to the risk of allergic reactions. The safety of this medication has not been established in children, especially those under 15 years of age, and elderly patients over 80 years should use this medication cautiously due to the accumulation of the drug in the body from decreased kidney function, which may enhance its effects.

In cases of severe skin rash or mucosal damage along with high fever, or symptoms such as sore throat, fever, or easy bleeding, the medication should be discontinued immediately.
