This drug contains lactose and should not be used in patients with genetically determined lactose intolerance, lactose enzyme deficiency, or glucose-galactose absorption disorder. While taking this medication, side effects such as liver dysfunction, constipation, rash, pruritus, and diarrhea may occur, and if symptoms develop, it is necessary to consult a physician immediately. According to surveys conducted in Japan and domestically, rare cases of elevated liver enzyme levels, gastrointestinal disturbance symptoms, and skin rashes have been reported in some patients. Elderly patients may have reduced bodily function, so administration should begin with a low dose and be carefully monitored for conditions. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should only use this medication when the benefits of treatment outweigh the risks, and breastfeeding women should preferably avoid administration or discontinue breastfeeding while using this medication. Safety in pediatric patients has not been sufficiently established, so caution is warranted. This medication should be stored out of the reach of children, and transferring to another container should be avoided as it may negatively affect product quality. Additionally, since the half-life of this medication is relatively long at approximately 150 hours, caution is necessary for long-term use. In animal tests, high-dose administration has reported effects such as decreased reproductive function and reduced birth weight, hence caution should be exercised when used around the time of pregnancy.
