While taking this medication, gastrointestinal symptoms such as occasional diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting may occur, and rarely, abdominal pain, constipation, and heartburn may develop. Allergic reactions such as itching or rashes may also occur, and skin rashes may occasionally develop, but these symptoms usually subside when combined with antihistamines. Transient jaundice may appear; however, this will resolve upon discontinuing the medication or using jaundice treatment agents. Rarely, there may be sensations of heaviness or dizziness. In clinical studies conducted in the country among patients with chronic persistent hepatitis, the incidence of drug side effects was very low; however, serious side effects such as liver cirrhosis, ascites, and acute hepatitis C have been reported, necessitating caution. It is essential to adhere strictly to the prescribed dosages, and if symptoms do not improve or other abnormal symptoms appear after taking the medication for a maximum of 8 weeks, patients should discontinue use and consult a doctor or pharmacist.
