Precautions

This medication should not be used by women who are pregnant or may become pregnant. This medication contains lactose, so it should not be administered to patients with genetic disorders that prevent the digestion of lactose. It should be used cautiously in patients with a tendency to bleed or those taking antiplatelet agents, thrombolytics, or anticoagulants. When using this medication, there may be hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rash or itching; if these symptoms occur, use should be discontinued immediately. Bleeding may occur rarely, so if bleeding symptoms appear, discontinue use and consult a physician. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as diarrhea, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and loss of appetite may occur, so caution is necessary. Hepatic function abnormalities may occur, and regular monitoring, such as liver function tests, is needed. Cardiovascular symptoms such as palpitations or hypotension may occur, so symptoms should be closely observed. Headaches, facial flushing, dizziness, and a feeling of warmth may also occur. Patients with lumbar spinal stenosis should continuously monitor symptoms and decide whether to continue medication. The safety of use during pregnancy has not been established, and uterine contraction effects were reported in animal studies, so use should be avoided in pregnant women. Safety has not been established in children; therefore, there is no experience of use in this population. Elderly patients may have decreased body function, so caution is needed in adjusting dosage. In healthy adults, administration of high doses may temporarily lower blood pressure, so caution is needed.
