This medication contains the dye Yellow No. 4, so individuals with allergies or hypersensitivity to this component should use it with caution. While taking this medication, gastrointestinal disturbances such as occasional heartburn, nausea, or diarrhea may occur. Allergic reactions such as gum bleeding, nosebleed, skin rash, or itching may occur infrequently, and very rarely, severe hypersensitivity reactions such as facial swelling or difficulty breathing may appear. Liver function abnormalities have been reported, so care should be taken regarding liver health, and there is a possibility of lowered platelet counts, so medical supervision is necessary. If signs of liver damage such as jaundice, dark urine, severe abdominal pain, or loss of appetite appear while taking this medication, it should be discontinued immediately, and a healthcare professional should be consulted. Furthermore, if symptoms like fever, difficulty breathing, or blood in sputum persist for several days, the medication should be stopped and a hospital visit should be made. It is advisable not to take this medication while lying down. To date, no significant interactions with other medications have been reported; however, caution is advised for those taking anticoagulants as it may affect blood coagulation. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should preferably avoid this medication as its safety has not been established. In case of overdose, side effects may be exacerbated, so consult a doctor immediately if an overdose occurs. This medication should be stored out of reach of children and should not be transferred to another container.

If symptoms like difficulty breathing or blood in sputum do not improve, the medication should also be stopped.
