Precautions

This medicine contains lactose, so it should not be used in patients with genetic conditions such as galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption. While taking this medication, adverse reactions such as diarrhea, dry mouth, and lethargy may occur, and serious side effects such as liver dysfunction, hepatitis, or jaundice may arise; thus, if symptoms appear, the medication should be immediately discontinued and a doctor consulted. Moreover, hypersensitivity reactions such as rash, urticaria, and edema, as well as changes in blood counts, gastrointestinal symptoms, dizziness, and headaches have also been reported, so caution is necessary. If abnormal symptoms persist or worsen after taking the medication, it is essential to inform healthcare professionals, and long-term use should be avoided if symptoms do not improve even after 2 weeks of treatment. Taking this medication with food may increase its concentration in the blood, therefore it is recommended to take it on an empty stomach. This medication may have reduced efficacy when taken with anticholinergics, so a sufficient interval between doses should be maintained in such cases. Women who are pregnant or have the possibility of pregnancy should use this medication cautiously when necessary, and breastfeeding women should either avoid administration or discontinue breastfeeding. Safety in children has not been established, so it is advised not to use it if there is no prior experience with it. The elderly may have impaired renal and liver function, so they should be monitored closely while taking this medication, and if adverse reactions occur, dosage adjustments should be made. Lastly, this medication should be stored out of reach of children, and care should be taken not to transfer it to other containers, as it may adversely affect the quality.
