This medication can cause severe harm to the fetus if taken during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters, and should be discontinued immediately upon confirmation of pregnancy. If administered to patients with low blood volume for the first time, blood pressure may drop too much, so those with such symptoms should use the medication after treatment. It should not be administered to patients with allergies, severe liver dysfunction, severe aortic stenosis, or those in shock. Due to its blood pressure-lowering effect, dizziness may occur, so it is advisable to avoid driving or operating dangerous machinery. Patients with impaired kidney function, hyperkalemia, or those on strict salt restrictions should use this medication cautiously. When using in conjunction with other antihypertensives, the effect may be intensified, so take it under the doctor’s guidance. Grapefruit juice may enhance the blood pressure-lowering effects, so it is better not to take them together. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use this medication, and especially if pregnancy is confirmed, it should be stopped immediately. Children under 18 years of age are advised not to take this medication as its safety and efficacy have not been established.
