Rashes or hives, and facial swelling have also been reported, so if these symptoms appear, consult a doctor immediately. In patients with impaired renal function, symptoms of muscle weakness may appear mildly, so caution is necessary. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should only use this medication when the benefits are deemed greater than the risks, as its safety has not been sufficiently verified.
