Precautions

This medication should be consulted with a doctor or pharmacist if you frequently consume daily amounts of alcohol, as it may pose a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Anyone with heart or vascular issues or at risk of cardiovascular disease should use this medication for the shortest duration possible at minimal doses, and seek immediate medical advice if symptoms arise. Individuals with a history of gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding must be cautious, as serious issues such as gastrointestinal perforation, ulcers, and bleeding may occur with this medication. Elderly patients and those with a history of gastrointestinal disorders should be especially careful. This medication should not be used by those with specific allergic reactions, severe liver or kidney dysfunction, active gastrointestinal bleeding, a history of heart failure or cardiovascular diseases, or women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Those with liver or kidney issues or asthma, heart failure, hypertension, edema, dehydration, or the elderly should take this medication under careful observation. Various adverse reactions such as dyspepsia, headaches, dizziness, skin rashes, hypertension, edema, abdominal pain, and vomiting may occur during use, and immediate medical consultation is necessary if symptoms worsen or new symptoms appear. Since this medication is metabolized in the liver, dose adjustments may be needed when taken with other medications that affect liver function, and caution is required with possible interactions with blood pressure medications, diuretics, anticoagulants, and antidepressants. Women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should avoid taking this medication, as it may affect the fetus, and those who are breastfeeding should also discontinue use or stop breastfeeding. Children and adolescents should preferably avoid using this medication due to the lack of established safety and efficacy. Elderly patients should have their doses adjusted and be closely monitored due to potential declines in kidney and liver function. For those taking this medication long-term, regular blood tests and assessments of liver and kidney function are necessary, and if any abnormal signs are observed, discontinuation may be required. Dizziness or drowsiness may occur during use, so it is safer to avoid driving or operating machinery. This medication can cause allergic reactions or serious skin reactions, so if symptoms such as rashes, blisters, fever, or itching occur, immediate discontinuation and medical consultation are necessary. In cases of overdose, symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, gastrointestinal bleeding, and renal failure may appear, requiring immediate treatment at a medical institution. When storing, keep this medication in a tightly sealed container away from children's reach and do not transfer it to another container.
