This medication should not be used in patients with allergic reactions or sensitivity to any of its components. Additionally, it contains lactose, so it should not be given to patients with lactase deficiency or certain genetic metabolic disorders. Patients with liver disease or a history of liver disease should use this medication cautiously and closely monitor for possible deterioration of liver function. If allergic symptoms such as rash, urticaria, itching, or swelling occur during treatment, use should be discontinued immediately, and appropriate treatment should be sought. Drowsiness, headache, dizziness, and insomnia may rarely occur as side effects affecting the nervous system and require caution. Gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and constipation may occur; if symptoms are severe, consultation with a physician is necessary. Liver function abnormalities may arise, thus regular liver function tests should be performed, and the medication should be discontinued if any abnormal signs appear. As it may affect the kidneys or urinary system, report any urinary symptoms or urinary tract symptoms immediately. Symptoms like palpitations or shortness of breath related to the cardiovascular and respiratory systems have been reported rarely, so these symptoms should be observed closely. This medication is not a rapid-relief medication for asthma attacks, so asthma patients need to understand this. Be cautious when driving or operating machinery as drowsiness may occur. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should consult with a physician prior to use, as it may not be safe. Lactating women should avoid taking this medication if possible, or discontinue breastfeeding as the medication may be passed into breast milk. Safety in children, especially in newborns and infants, has not been sufficiently established, thus use should be approached with caution. Elderly patients may have decreased liver and kidney function, which may necessitate dosage adjustment or discontinuation of medication in the event of adverse reactions. In case of overdose, irregular heartbeat and other heart issues may occur, requiring immediate medical attention for appropriate treatment. This medication should be kept out of reach of children and should not be transferred to other containers. When administered, whether taken before or after meals can affect blood concentration and efficacy, so it should be taken according to a physician's instructions.
