Precautions

This medication should not be used in patients with certain conditions. For example, patients with urinary retention symptoms, severe gastrointestinal problems, myasthenia gravis, glaucoma, allergy to this drug or its components, patients undergoing dialysis, or those with severe liver or kidney dysfunction should not take it. In addition, caution is advised for patients with difficulty in urine discharge, risk of gastrointestinal obstruction, severe renal or hepatic dysfunction, patients taking strong specific drugs together, those with esophageal disorders or autonomic nervous system problems. Common side effects of this medication include dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, difficulty urinating, and dry eyes. Special care should be taken as serious gastrointestinal-related side effects may occur, especially with high doses. Rarely, serious allergic reactions such as angioedema or anaphylaxis can occur, and if such symptoms appear, the medication should be discontinued immediately and treatment sought. This medication requires caution as it may cause drowsiness or blurred vision when driving or operating machinery. Taking this medication with other anticholinergic drugs can increase its effectiveness or exacerbate side effects and may reduce the effectiveness of drugs that promote gastrointestinal motility. Since this medication is metabolized in the liver, taking it along with certain strong drugs may increase blood concentration, thus requiring dosage adjustment.
