This medication should not be used by patients who have had allergic reactions to its components. Also, this medication contains lactose, so it should not be administered to patients with genetic diseases that impair lactose digestion. During the use of this medication, serious allergic reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis may occur rarely, and if any symptoms appear, use should be immediately discontinued and medical attention sought. Regular blood tests are needed as white blood cell or platelet counts may decrease, and liver function tests should be performed since liver function abnormalities may develop. Skin hypersensitivity reactions such as urticaria, rash, and itching may appear, and if these symptoms occur, medication should be stopped and consulted with a healthcare professional. There may be neurological symptoms such as dizziness or drowsiness, so care must be taken when driving or operating machinery. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as dry mouth, constipation, abdominal pain, and diarrhea may also occur, and if symptoms are severe, a physician should be consulted. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should decide whether to use this medication after sufficient consultation with a doctor, as its safety has not been established. Breastfeeding women are advised to avoid breastfeeding as this medication can be transmitted through breast milk. Safety for children or newborns has not been sufficiently confirmed, so special caution is needed when using it. The elderly may have weakened physical functions, so special attention should be paid to adverse reactions, including gastrointestinal symptoms. This medication should be stored out of reach of children, and transferring it to another container should be avoided, as it may lead to quality deterioration or accidents.
