Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not take this medication as animal studies have shown potential harm to the fetus. Women who are menstruating or patients with a tendency for bleeding should use this medication with caution due to the risk of worsening bleeding. Patients taking anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents should be cautious as the risk of bleeding may increase when taken with this medication.

During the course of this medication, severe bleeding symptoms such as gastrointestinal bleeding, cerebral hemorrhage, and subcutaneous bleeding should be carefully monitored. If any abnormal symptoms occur, the medication should be discontinued immediately and medical consultation should be sought. Abnormalities in blood cell counts, such as agranulocytosis or thrombocytopenia, may occur; thus, regular blood tests are necessary. Liver function may be impaired, or jaundice may present, so liver function should be periodically assessed. Allergic reactions such as skin rash, urticaria, and itching may occur, and if symptoms appear, the medication should be discontinued.
