Patients with heart problems who have experienced acute myocardial infarction, those with low blood pressure, or those with severe liver or kidney diseases should also avoid this medication.

While taking this medication, temporary side effects such as nausea or dizziness may occur, and if these symptoms occur, the medication should be discontinued. Gastrointestinal issues like discomfort, abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, and heartburn may rarely occur. If an allergic reaction such as skin rash, itching, facial swelling, or difficulty breathing occurs, the medication should be stopped immediately. Respiratory issues or neurological symptoms have also been reported, so caution is required if unusual symptoms arise. This medication may be toxic if blood concentration increases, so elderly patients, those with liver or kidney dysfunction, alcoholics, and those with heart failure should be particularly careful. When used with other medications, attention must be paid to interactions. The blood concentration of this medication may change when used with some antibiotics, anticoagulants, diuretics, and neurological medications, so consultation with a professional is essential. Using it with central nervous system stimulants or other xanthine derivatives may result in excessive central nervous system stimulation, so it is best not to take them together. It is generally safe to avoid use during pregnancy, unless in special cases, and breastfeeding women should also avoid taking this medication. For the elderly and children, the dosage should be adjusted or used cautiously, considering their physical capabilities. In case of overdose, severe seizures or cardiac arrhythmias may occur, so immediate medical attention should be sought for appropriate treatment.
