Precautions

This medication should not be used in patients with hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients. Caution is advised when using this medication in patients with renal or hepatic impairment, as well as in elderly patients. Side effects such as drowsiness, headache, dizziness, dry mouth, indigestion, and diarrhea may occur after taking this medication. Additionally, changes in blood counts, elevated liver function tests, renal impairment, and skin rash have also been reported as side effects. Drowsiness may occur, so caution is needed while driving or operating dangerous machinery. Patients who have been on long-term steroid therapy should gradually reduce their steroid dosage when taking this medication. In patients with renal impairment, the blood concentration of this medication may increase, so starting with a low dose and monitoring for adverse reactions is recommended. This medication has not been sufficiently studied in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis, so caution should be exercised, and it should not be taken long-term if ineffective. It is advisable not to take this medication with other antihistamines or excessive alcohol. Pregnant or potentially pregnant women and nursing mothers should avoid using this medication unless absolutely necessary and should seek medical advice before use. The safety of this medication in children has not been sufficiently established, so care should be taken when using it in this population. Since this medication is primarily excreted through the kidneys, elderly patients should take care to avoid increased blood concentration due to renal function decline. When undergoing allergy testing, it is advisable to stop taking this medication before testing, as it may affect the results. This medication's tablets should be taken out of the packaging before use, and chewing or swallowing the packaging may damage the esophageal mucosa, so care should be exercised. Finally, this medication should be stored out of the reach of children and kept in a cool place below 30 degrees Celsius, free from moisture.
