This medication should not be used by patients who are allergic to its components or those who have experienced hypersensitivity reactions. While taking this medication, serious allergic reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis may rarely occur, so if symptoms appear, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional. Additionally, there may be side effects such as decreased white blood cell or platelet counts, so it is important to continuously monitor the condition through blood tests. It may affect liver function, so if there are abnormal results in liver function tests, the medication should be discontinued and appropriate treatment should be sought. If allergic symptoms such as hives, rash, or itching occur, medication should be discontinued, although these symptoms are rare. This medication affects the central nervous system, which can lead to symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, or paralysis, so caution is needed when driving or operating machinery. Gastrointestinal symptoms may include dry mouth, constipation, abdominal distension, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, abdominal pain, belching, and taste disturbances, so notify a healthcare provider if any of these symptoms occur. If liver enzyme levels increase or if fever or rash is present, discontinue medication immediately and consult a physician. Changes in blood cell counts may occur, so regular blood tests are required. Other side effects may include breast pain or gynecomastia, galactorrhea, palpitations, fever, facial flushing, tongue paralysis, cough, shortness of breath, hair loss, menstrual irregularities, edema, and foreign body sensation in the throat. Pregnant women or those who may become pregnant should only use this medication if the benefits of treatment outweigh the risks, as safety has not been established. Women who are breastfeeding should avoid using this medication as it may be transmitted through breast milk. Safety in children, especially low birth weight infants or neonates, infants, and children, has not been adequately confirmed, so caution is advised when using it in this population. Elderly patients do not show significant differences in types or frequencies of adverse reactions compared to adults, but their bodily functions may be weakened, requiring more attention to gastrointestinal side effects.
