This medication is administered once daily to adults, taken with the evening meal.

This medication can rarely cause severe lactic acidosis, which can be life-threatening, so caution is necessary. When used with other diabetes treatments, hypoglycemia may occur, so blood sugar levels should be monitored closely. It should not be used in patients with hypersensitivity to any component of this medication or with severely impaired liver function. It should also be avoided in cases of muscle disorders or when taken with certain immunosuppressants. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and fertile women who are not using adequate contraception should consult about the possibilities and risks of pregnancy before taking this medication. Patients with severe kidney dysfunction or those with acute cardiovascular conditions such as acute heart failure or acute myocardial infarction should not use this medication. If examinations using iodine contrast agents are planned, the administration of this medication should be discontinued for a certain period before and after the examination, and it should be resumed only after kidney function has recovered. This medication contains lactose, so it should not be given to patients with genetic problems such as lactose intolerance. Caution is advised in cases of irregular meals, vigorous exercise, or interactions with other medications, and if symptoms such as myalgia or muscle weakness occur, medical attention should be sought immediately. This medication can affect liver and kidney function, so regular blood tests and kidney function assessments are necessary. Alcohol can increase the risk of side effects from this medication, so excessive drinking should be avoided during treatment. It should not be used during pregnancy, and it is not recommended during breastfeeding. Safety and efficacy have not been established in children and adolescents, so it is not used in these populations. Elderly patients often have decreased kidney function, so dosage adjustments and kidney function monitoring are required. In case of overdose, drug removal through blood dialysis is possible, so medical facilities should be visited immediately. Caution should be taken when driving or operating machinery as dizziness may occur. Keep out of reach of children and store in the original container.
