Precautions

This medication contains lactose, and individuals with hereditary issues such as galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not take it. During use, gastrointestinal symptoms or adverse reactions such as skin rash, urticaria, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur, so caution is advised. If symptoms of liver function abnormalities occur, stop taking it immediately and consult a doctor, as it may cause liver function problems. Taking it with food can alter drug concentration, so it is generally recommended to take it on an empty stomach. If taken with anticholinergics, the effectiveness of this medication may be reduced, so it is necessary to take them with an interval in between. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should take it cautiously after consulting a doctor, and nursing mothers should avoid taking it or discontinue breastfeeding. Children and the elderly should take it carefully under a doctor's direction, as its safety has not been sufficiently verified and due to potential decline in physical function. If symptoms do not improve after taking the medication, it is advisable not to use it for a prolonged period, and medications should be stored out of reach of children. Additionally, transferring the medication to another container may negatively affect its quality, so caution is advised.
