Precautions

This medication may cause side effects such as diarrhea, loose stools, dry mouth, and lethargy in some patients during use. It may affect liver function, so if there is an increase in liver enzyme levels or symptoms of hepatitis, the medication should be stopped immediately and a doctor should be consulted. There may be hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rashes or urticaria, or rarely, swelling of the face or body. Increased eosinophil counts or decreased white blood cell counts may occur in blood tests. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal bloating, oral numbness including the tongue and lips, nausea, vomiting, and taste disorders have been reported. Rapid heartbeat or neurological symptoms such as dizziness and headache may also occur rarely. This medication contains lactose, so patients with lactose intolerance or galactose metabolism disorders should not take it. If gastrointestinal symptoms do not improve after using the medication for more than two weeks, long-term use should be avoided. The effect of this medication may be reduced when taken with anticholinergics, so care should be taken to space the doses apart. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should carefully weigh the benefits and risks of taking this medication, and it is recommended to avoid it during breastfeeding or to discontinue breastfeeding. Safety in pediatric patients has not been established, so it is preferable not to use it in children. Elderly patients may have impaired kidney and liver function; therefore, they should use the medication cautiously while monitoring their condition, and dosages should be reduced if adverse effects occur. The medication should be kept out of reach of children, and transferring it to another container may not maintain its quality, so caution is advised. Finally, results from animal studies show an increase in tumor occurrence with high doses over a long duration, so prolonged use at high doses should be avoided.
