Bleeding symptoms may rarely occur, so if any signs of bleeding appear, the medication should be stopped and the physician consulted. Gastrointestinal discomfort may occur, including diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, and heartburn, so caution is necessary.

Headaches, facial flushing, dizziness, a feeling of heat, tremors, and anemia may also occur; if any unusual symptoms arise, the physician should be informed. Patients with lumbar spinal stenosis should carefully observe changes in symptoms while deciding on the continuation of medication. The effectiveness of this medication is not certain for patients with severe lumbar spinal stenosis who require surgery. The safety during pregnancy has not been confirmed, and uterine contractions have been reported in animal studies, so it should not be administered to pregnant women. Safety for children has not been confirmed, and there is no experience using it. Elderly patients may have diminished physical function, so caution should be exercised in usage and dosage should be reduced if necessary. Healthy adults who take a large quantity may experience transient hypotension, and care should be taken.
