This medication may cause gastrointestinal bleeding if taken by individuals who regularly consume more than three glasses of alcohol per day, so it is essential to consult a doctor or pharmacist. It may affect the cardiovascular system and increase the risk of myocardial infarction or stroke. Caution is especially necessary for individuals with cardiovascular conditions or risk factors. Serious gastrointestinal adverse reactions, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, or perforations may occur, and the elderly may be at increased risk. Patients with a history of gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding, severe liver, kidney, or heart disease, and specific allergies or asthma should not take this medication. Concurrent use with aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs may increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding and reduce efficacy, so combination should be avoided. During treatment with this medication, breastfeeding should be discontinued or medication should be stopped, and care should be taken in operating vehicles or machinery as dizziness or fatigue may occur. Individuals with blood abnormalities, liver or kidney disease, hypertension, or a history of hypersensitivity should only take this medicine after consulting a doctor or pharmacist. If symptoms such as skin rash, difficulty breathing, severe headache, or gastrointestinal bleeding occur, stop taking the medication immediately and consult a healthcare professional. During pregnancy, especially after the sixth month, use should be avoided as it may affect the fetus, and women planning to become pregnant or in the early stages of pregnancy should also consult a professional. This medication should be used at the minimal effective dose for the shortest duration necessary, and regular blood tests and liver and kidney function tests are recommended for long-term use. In case of overdose, immediate medical attention should be sought even if no symptoms are present. Keep out of reach of children and away from direct sunlight and moisture.
