Precautions

This medicine should not be taken by pregnant women or women who may become pregnant, as the ingredients can cause uterine contractions and increase the risk of miscarriage or premature birth. Breastfeeding women should also avoid this medicine, as some ingredients may be transferred through breast milk and cause diarrhea in the baby. Individuals with a genetic inability to digest lactose should not take this medication because it contains lactose, which may worsen symptoms. Those allergic to soybean oil, soy, or peanuts should refrain from using this medicine due to the risk of allergic reactions. It is advisable not to use other laxatives while taking this medication, as drug interactions may lead to side effects. Individuals with hypertension, heart or kidney diseases, and edema should consult a physician or pharmacist before use, as this medication may exacerbate symptoms. It is crucial for the elderly or those taking other medications to consult a professional, as bodily functions may be weakened and side effects can occur more easily. Those with diarrhea or loose stools, weak stomachs, loss of appetite, or nausea should seek professional advice before taking this medicine, as symptoms may worsen. People with significantly weakened stamina after illness or those who sweat excessively should also exercise caution. Adverse reactions may occur easily, and symptoms may become more severe. Consultation is necessary for individuals with, or a history of, cardiovascular diseases such as angina or myocardial infarction before taking this medication. Those with urinary disorders or hyperthyroidism should also consult a professional before using this drug, as the condition may worsen. If there have been allergic reactions in the past, such as skin rashes or itching, this medication should be avoided. Diabetic patients should be cautious as some ingredients may raise blood sugar levels. Patients with abnormal lipid metabolism or those using lipid-based emulsions should also use this medication carefully. This medication contains Tartrazine (Yellow No. 4), so those allergic to this substance should exercise caution. During use, if symptoms such as decreased urine output, swelling, raised blood pressure, headache, muscle weakness, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, skin rashes, insomnia, rapid heartbeat, urinary disorders, or liver function abnormalities appear, the medication should be stopped immediately and a professional consulted. For use in constipation, if symptoms do not improve after one week of use, consult a professional. Long-term use should generally be avoided; however, if long-term use is unavoidable, professional consultation is necessary. Irritant laxatives may develop tolerance and worsen constipation with prolonged use, so it is advisable not to use continuously for more than a week. Dosage and administration must be strictly followed, and effects may vary by individual, so caution is needed. When taking with other herbal or biological medicines, attention should be paid to ingredient overlap, especially when used in combination with products containing rhubarb. When taken with ephedrine, MAO inhibitors, thyroid medications, catecholamines, or xanthine derivatives, side effects such as insomnia, excessive sweating, and rapid heartbeat may occur, requiring dose adjustments. Taking with potassium-containing medications, licorice-containing medications, or diuretics may lead to hypokalemia or muscle-related issues, so careful usage is required. Patients with fat overload should monitor plasma lipid levels and adjust the dosage of this medication as needed. For storage, avoid direct sunlight and keep in a cool, dry, sealed place, out of reach of children. Store in the original container; transferring to another container may risk degradation of quality or misuse.
