This medication contains zinc, which can interfere with copper absorption; therefore, appropriate treatment is necessary if symptoms of copper deficiency appear. If hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rash, itching, or hives occur during use, the medication should be discontinued. Gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea or dyspepsia may commonly occur, and if symptoms are severe, consulting a doctor is advisable. The effectiveness of this medication may be reduced when taken with other medications, especially when taken concurrently with penicillamine or levothyroxine sodium, so they should be taken at different times. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should carefully consider the risks associated with taking this medication, and nursing mothers are advised to avoid taking it. Use in children is not recommended as safety has not been established. Elderly patients may have decreased digestive function, so dosage should be reduced and closely monitored.
