Precautions

This medication should not be used by patients who are allergic to this drug or any of its components. Additionally, since it contains lactose, it should not be administered to patients with lactose intolerance or a genetic lactase deficiency. Caution is required when using in patients with thrombosis or blood coagulation disorders, and in patients with serious issues in major organs such as the liver, kidneys, heart, or lungs. Patients with drug allergy symptoms or those with a prior history of allergies should also exercise caution. This drug contains a pigment called Tartrazine (Yellow No. 4), so individuals sensitive to this component should be particularly careful. While using this medication, gastrointestinal symptoms such as belching, abdominal distension, dyspepsia, nausea, and vomiting may occasionally occur. Liver function test values may temporarily rise, so individuals with liver health issues should be cautious. The efficacy and safety of this medication have not been sufficiently verified in patients with a history of peptic ulcers or gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastritis, and gastric ulcers. This medication should be discontinued if symptoms do not improve within 2 weeks, and consultation with a physician or pharmacist is recommended. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should carefully consider the benefits and risks of using this medication, and similarly, nursing mothers should also use caution when administering this medication. There is insufficient evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of this medication in children and adolescents, thus caution is needed when used in those populations. Elderly patients aged 75 and over may experience adverse reactions more easily, so careful monitoring and prudent administration are necessary. This medication should be stored in a tightly sealed container away from direct sunlight and in a cool place with low humidity, out of reach of children. Furthermore, transferring it to another container is not advisable as it could compromise the quality.
