Precautions

This medication contains lactose, so it should not be used by patients with a genetic disorder that prevents the digestion of lactose. While taking this medication, gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting may occur, so caution is advised. It may affect liver function, so if symptoms of hepatitis or jaundice appear, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. Since hypersensitive reactions such as skin rashes, hives, and edema may occur, if such symptoms appear, stop taking the medication and inform your healthcare provider. Neurological symptoms such as dizziness, headache, and drowsiness have also been reported, so caution is needed when driving or operating machinery. Pregnant women or women who may become pregnant should use this medication only when the benefits of treatment are deemed greater than the risks, if it is necessary. In cases of breastfeeding, it is advisable to avoid taking this medication, and if it must be taken, it is safe to stop breastfeeding. Safety in children has not been established, so it is preferable not to use it in pediatric patients. Elderly individuals may have impaired kidney and liver function, so if adverse reactions occur while taking the medication, the dosage should be reduced or appropriate measures taken. Taking this medication with food may increase blood concentration, so it is generally recommended to take it on an empty stomach. Taking it with anticholinergic agents may reduce the effectiveness of this medication, so caution is needed such as maintaining intervals when used in combination. Keep out of the reach of children and be careful as transferring it to other containers may change its quality.
