Precautions

This drug should not be used by individuals with hypersensitivity to the ingredients. Patients with kidney or liver problems and the elderly should exercise caution when using this medication. In clinical trials, central nervous system symptoms such as drowsiness, headaches, and dizziness, as well as gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea have been reported. Adverse reactions such as changes in blood counts, elevated liver function tests, and skin rashes may also occur. Because drowsiness may occur while taking this medication, it is advisable to avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery. Patients receiving long-term steroid therapy should gradually reduce their steroid dosage when using this drug, and patients with decreased kidney function should start at a lower dose and proceed with caution. The efficacy of this medication in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis has not been sufficiently studied, so caution is required, and if ineffective, long-term use should be avoided. This drug should not be taken with excessive alcohol. It is preferable that women who are pregnant or may become pregnant do not use this medication, and breastfeeding women should also avoid use if possible. Safety in children has not been thoroughly established. Elderly patients should use this medication with caution due to prolonged retention of the drug in the body caused by decreased kidney function. This drug may affect allergy test results, so it is advisable not to take it prior to testing. When taking the medication, the packaged tablet should be removed and consumed, and care should be taken not to swallow the packaging. Finally, this medication should be stored out of reach of children, protected from moisture, and kept at temperatures below 30 degrees Celsius for safety.
