This medication may cause serious harm to the fetus and newborn if taken during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, so it should be discontinued immediately if pregnancy is confirmed. It should not be used in patients with allergies to any of its ingredients or similar substances, pregnant or nursing women, and patients with severe renal or liver impairment. Patients with low sodium or fluid levels in the body should optimize their condition before starting this medication, and careful monitoring is required as hypotension may occur. In patients with high potassium levels or those taking medications that can raise potassium levels, potassium levels should be frequently monitored. Patients with renal vascular problems or those who have recently received a kidney transplant should closely monitor kidney function while using this medication. If symptoms of angioedema, such as swelling of the face, lips, or tongue occur during treatment, the medication should be discontinued immediately. Patients with heart failure or post-myocardial infarction should closely observe kidney function during treatment with this medication, as hypotensive symptoms may occur, requiring cautious use. This medication may cause dizziness or fatigue when driving or operating machinery; caution is advised during such activities. If blood pressure drops too low suddenly during treatment, the patient should be laid down and emergency treatment such as administering saline may be required. When combined with certain other medications, the effectiveness of blood pressure control may be reduced or kidney function may be affected; discuss any medications being taken with a physician. Women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should avoid this medication, and nursing mothers are advised to avoid its use as well. Its safety and efficacy in children under 18 years old have not been sufficiently established, thus it is not recommended for use in this population.
