When taking this medicine, it is important to note that side effects such as nausea, intestinal gas, and increased blood triglycerides may occur. In clinical trials, some patients experienced symptoms such as diarrhea, dry mouth, and malaise, and serious side effects like liver function abnormalities have been reported rarely.

Allergic reactions such as skin rashes, hives, and swelling may occur, so stop taking it and consult a specialist if these symptoms are present. This medicine may cause drowsiness, so caution is required when driving or operating machinery. If symptoms do not improve after taking for more than 2 weeks, do not use it for an extended period, and taking it with food may alter the efficacy, so it is better to take it on an empty stomach. Taking with anticholinergics may reduce the effectiveness of this medicine, so caution is required, such as adjusting the dosing interval. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should carefully consider the use of this medicine, and breastfeeding should be avoided or breastfeeding should be stopped while taking it.
