Precautions

This medication should not be used in patients who have had hypersensitivity reactions to its ingredients. During treatment with this medication, serious allergic reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis may rarely occur, so if symptoms are suspected, the administration should be stopped immediately and medical consultation should be sought. There may be a decrease in white blood cell or platelet counts, so regular blood tests should be performed, and any abnormal symptoms should be reported. As liver function may be affected, if there are any abnormalities in liver function tests or symptoms of jaundice appear, the administration should be discontinued. If skin reactions such as hives, rash, or itching occur, this medication should be discontinued and medical consultation should be sought. Neurological symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, or paresthesia may occur, so caution is needed when driving or operating machinery. Digestive symptoms such as dry mouth, constipation, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and nausea may occur, and if symptoms are severe, medical consultation should be sought. Pregnant women or those who may become pregnant should not be administered this medication, and if treatment is absolutely necessary, the risks and benefits should be thoroughly discussed with a physician. Breastfeeding women should avoid this medication as it may pass into breast milk. There is insufficient evidence of safety for children, especially low birth weight infants or newborns, so caution is necessary. Elderly patients may have decreased physiological functions, so special attention should be paid to adverse effects such as digestive symptoms. This medication should be kept out of reach of children, and transferring to another container may deteriorate its quality, so it is safer to keep it in the original container.
