This medication should not be used in patients with known allergic reactions to its components. During the use of this medication, serious allergic reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis may rarely occur, so symptoms should be closely monitored. If such symptoms occur, immediately discontinue use and seek appropriate treatment. Leukopenia or thrombocytopenia may occasionally occur, so blood status should be carefully observed. If abnormalities are found, discontinue the medication and seek treatment. There may be issues with liver function, so if liver enzymes rise or jaundice symptoms appear, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. Skin hypersensitivity reactions such as urticaria, rashes, or pruritus may occur; if these symptoms appear, discontinue the medication. Neurological symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, and numbness may occur; caution is required while driving or operating machinery.

If elevated liver enzyme levels are accompanied by fever or rashes, discontinue the medication and follow the physician's instructions. Routine blood tests may be necessary as there may be changes in platelet count or white blood cell count.

Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant must carefully consider the risks and benefits of using this medication, and breastfeeding should be avoided as the drug may pass into breast milk. Safety in children, especially low-birth-weight infants, newborns, infants, and children, has not been sufficiently established, so use with caution is essential.
