This medicine should not be administered to certain patients. First, it should not be used in patients who have an allergy to the medication or have severe muscle weakness symptoms. In addition, it should be administered with caution to patients with a history of hypersensitivity to medications or those with liver function problems. Caution is required as liver function may deteriorate. While rare, serious allergic reactions or skin reactions may occur when using this medication, so if symptoms such as redness, itching, hives, difficulty breathing, fever, blisters, or stomatitis appear, discontinuation should be immediate, and a medical consultation sought. Some patients have reported abnormal liver enzymes, renal function issues, blood abnormalities, neurological symptoms, gastrointestinal issues, and urinary symptoms, so it is important to notify immediately if any unusual symptoms occur. During the use of this medication, symptoms such as weakness, dizziness, or drowsiness may appear, and in such cases, the dosage should be reduced or the administration should be discontinued. Due to drowsiness or decreased concentration, it is advisable to avoid driving or operating dangerous machinery. Moreover, caution should be exercised when taking this medication in combination with other muscle relaxants, as visual disturbances may arise. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should use this medication only when the benefits outweigh the risks, as its safety has not been established, and nursing mothers should avoid it if possible and discontinue breastfeeding if unavoidable. The safety for children has not been adequately established, so caution should be exercised when administering to children. For elderly patients, as physical functions may be declined, careful administration and dosage adjustment are necessary.
