Precautions

This medication may pose a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding when taken by individuals who regularly consume more than three drinks a day, so it is essential to consult a doctor or pharmacist. This drug can increase the risks associated with the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems, so caution should be exercised in individuals with risk factors such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, and smoking. This drug can cause serious adverse reactions like ulcers, bleeding, or perforations in the gastrointestinal tract, so particularly the elderly or those with a history of gastrointestinal diseases should be cautious. Individuals with active peptic ulcers or bleeding, those allergic to this drug or similar medications, pregnant women in the late stage of pregnancy, and nursing mothers should not take this medication. People with impaired kidney or liver function, heart failure, hypertension, and asthma should use this drug with special care and follow their doctor's instructions. If taken for an extended period, regular liver, kidney function tests and blood tests should be conducted, and if any unusual symptoms arise, consult a healthcare professional immediately. Dizziness, drowsiness, and visual disturbances may occur, so it is advisable to avoid driving or operating dangerous machinery. Pregnant women or those planning to become pregnant should avoid using this drug unless consulting thoroughly with a physician, particularly in the late stage of pregnancy when it should not be taken at all. Since there may be interactions with other medications, anyone currently taking other drugs should inform their healthcare provider, especially when combined with anticoagulants, diuretics, lithium, and methotrexate. Safety and efficacy in children and adolescents have not been established, so it is preferable to avoid using this medication in these age groups.
