Also, patients with hypersensitivity or allergy history to soybean oil, soy, or peanuts should be cautious about taking this drug. Patients with thromboembolic disease or consumptive coagulopathy, or those with serious problems in major organs such as the liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, and blood should use this drug with caution.

Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, diarrhea, vomiting, heartburn, and upper abdominal pain may occur while taking this drug, and dizziness, headache, rash, itching, and liver function abnormalities may also rarely occur. When used with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, various adverse reactions such as palpitations, abdominal distention, constipation, insomnia, and dysuria may occur, so caution is needed. In clinical trials, if symptoms do not improve after more than 2 weeks of administration, it is advisable to discontinue use and consult a doctor or pharmacist. Particularly, patients at risk of fat overload should monitor plasma lipid levels and adjust the dosage if necessary. The safety of this drug during pregnancy has not been established, so women who may become pregnant should use it cautiously, and breastfeeding mothers should use it only if the benefits outweigh the risks. Additionally, this drug may affect blood test results, so regular clinical testing may be necessary. When storing, keep it out of reach of children, avoid direct sunlight, and store it in a cool, dry place. Transferring the drug to another container can be detrimental to maintaining quality.
