Precautions

This medication may place stress on the liver, so individuals who regularly consume more than three glasses of alcohol per day should consult with a physician or pharmacist before use. The acetaminophen in this medication can cause liver damage in case of overdose, so the maximum daily dose must not be exceeded and should not be taken with other acetaminophen-containing products. Although rare, serious skin allergic reactions may occur, so if symptoms such as rash or itching appear, stop taking the medication immediately and consult a specialist. Individuals with hypersensitivity to this medication or those who have experienced asthma should not take it, nor should infants under three months of age or those taking certain antidepressants or antipsychotics. During treatment, caution should be taken to avoid taking suppressants, other cold medications, antipyretics and analgesics, sedatives, or antihistamines in combination. Particularly, children, pregnant women, individuals with liver or kidney disorders, or gastrointestinal problems should consult a physician or pharmacist before use. If symptoms such as rash, vomiting, dizziness, or difficulty breathing, severe skin reactions along with high fever appear, stop taking the medication immediately and inform medical personnel. Follow the prescribed dosage and administration carefully, do not take for extended periods, and supervision by a guardian is required when administering to children. Do not consume alcohol while taking this medication, and caution should be taken as the metabolism of acetaminophen may slow when taken in combination with certain drugs. This medication contains caramel, thus individuals who are hypersensitive to it should use it with caution. Store in a sealed container, keeping it out of reach of children, avoiding direct sunlight, and in a cool, dry place. Furthermore, to maintain quality, it is advisable not to transfer to another container.
