This product contains aspartame, an artificial sweetener, which is broken down in the body into phenylalanine. Therefore, patients with phenylketonuria, a hereditary disease that requires limiting phenylalanine intake, should not take this product. The daily allowable amount of aspartame is adjusted not to exceed the recommended amount by WHO of 40mg/kg, therefore, for a 60kg adult, a maximum of 2.4g can be taken per day. Individuals with an allergy to this medication or those with gastric or duodenal ulcers, and infants under 2 years of age should avoid this medication. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should only take this medication after consulting with a physician, as its safety during pregnancy has not been sufficiently studied. Lactating women should also be cautious as it is unclear whether this medication is secreted in breast milk. If gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, oral inflammation, heartburn, diarrhea, allergy reactions like hives, itching, rashes, headaches, tinnitus, or bronchospasm occur during treatment, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional. Additionally, rare serious reactions such as increased heart rate, hypertension, or anaphylaxis may occur, so caution is needed.
