Child dose

Safety and efficacy for pediatric patients under 18 years of age have not been established, and administration of this medication is not recommended.

This medication can cause serious harm or death to the fetus if taken during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimester, so it should be discontinued immediately upon confirmation of pregnancy. Additionally, hypotension may occur when initially administered to patients with reduced effective blood volume, thus such conditions should be treated before use. It should not be used in patients with hypersensitivity to this medication, severe liver impairment, severe aortic stenosis, or in a state of shock. Due to the blood pressure-lowering effect, dizziness may occur; thus caution is required when driving or operating hazardous machinery. This medication should be administered carefully in elderly patients or those with impaired kidney function, as there is a risk of hyperkalemia, hence potassium level monitoring is necessary. Care should be taken with combined use of other antihypertensives as the effect may be enhanced. Pregnant and breastfeeding women are advised not to take this medication, particularly during pregnancy, as it poses serious risks to the fetus and newborn. Safety in children has not been established, and therefore it is not recommended. In case of overdose, severe hypotension and cardiac dysfunction may occur; immediate medical attention is required if symptoms arise. This medication should be stored out of reach of children and not transferred to other containers.
