It should also not be used by pregnant women, women who may become pregnant, nursing mothers, or patients with severely impaired liver function. This drug contains lactose, so it is important not to give it to patients with genetic disorders that impair lactose digestion. Patients with severe heart failure or very poor kidney function, elderly patients, and children under 2 years old should use this medication with caution. While taking this drug, gastrointestinal symptoms such as indigestion, nausea, and diarrhea may occur, and central nervous system symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and headaches may also arise. Rapid heartbeat or skin allergic reactions may rarely occur, so caution is advised. This medication may rarely cause a state of semi-consciousness, so caution is necessary when driving or operating machinery. Especially when taken with alcohol, its effects can be amplified, so it is advisable to avoid alcohol ingestion. Moreover, taking this medication in conjunction with sedatives may enhance its effects, so patients who are taking sedatives should consult with a physician before use. It is also safer not to use this medication in pregnant or nursing women and to store it out of the reach of children. Additionally, transferring the medication to another container is not good for maintaining quality, so it is advisable to keep it in its original container.
