Adverse gastrointestinal reactions may include gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, and perforation; the risk is higher in the elderly or long-term users, so gastrointestinal symptoms should be carefully monitored during use. Individuals with a history of gastrointestinal ulcers or bleeding, or those with severe liver, kidney, or heart dysfunction should not take this medication, nor should those with hypersensitivity or a history of asthma. During late pregnancy, it should not be taken as it may risk ductus arteriosus closure in the fetus, and patients receiving high-dose methotrexate during cancer treatment should also refrain from using it. Do not exceed the recommended dose, and it is safer not to take it with other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Those with a history of blood disorders, liver disease, kidney disease, heart disease, hypertension, or those on certain medications must consult a healthcare professional before use. If unusual symptoms such as rash, difficulty breathing, severe headache, visual disturbances, gastrointestinal bleeding, swelling occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. This medication should be taken at the lowest effective dose for the shortest period necessary, and regular monitoring of liver, kidney, and blood status is recommended during long-term use. During pregnancy, particularly after 20 weeks, there is a risk of fetal kidney dysfunction and oligohydramnios; if necessary, administer at the lowest effective dose for a short period and closely monitor amniotic fluid status.
