Precautions

This medication should not be used in certain patients. For instance, patients who are allergic to this medication or its components, those with liver cirrhosis, and those with a deficiency of cystathionine synthase should not take this medication. Additionally, patients with peptic ulcers, patients with severely impaired kidney function, and patients with significantly reduced liver function should not take this medication. This medication should be used with caution in patients with mildly impaired liver function, and the daily dosage should not exceed 300 mg. This medication contains a dye called Yellow No. 5, so patients who are allergic to this component or have hypersensitivity should use it cautiously. In case of overdose, symptoms such as sweating, dizziness, and facial flushing may occur, so it is important to avoid exceeding the prescribed dosage. While taking this medication, headaches, cold symptoms, breathing difficulties, taste changes, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, heartburn, and skin symptoms such as hives or rashes may appear. Caution should be exercised when using this medication in conjunction with other cough medications, as this may hinder the expulsion of phlegm from the bronchi, leading to a risk of bronchial infections or bronchospasms. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid taking this medication, as its safety has not been adequately established. This medication should be kept out of the reach of children, and it should not be transferred to other containers, as this could lead to accidents or degradation of quality.
