Drowsiness may occur during the use of this medication, so it is advisable to avoid driving or operating dangerous machinery. For individuals who have been receiving long-term steroid treatment, when taking this medication, the steroid dosage should be gradually reduced. Patients with decreased kidney function may experience increased drug concentration in the blood; therefore, it is recommended to start with a lower dose and closely monitor their condition.

Safety in children has not been established, so caution must be exercised when using it in children. Elderly individuals should take this medication with caution as diminished kidney function may cause the drug to remain in the body longer. This medication may affect the results of allergy tests; therefore, it is advisable not to take it before undergoing such tests.
