This medication may interact with other medications, especially caution should be taken to not take it concurrently with penicillamine or levothyroxine sodium. Pregnant women or those who may become pregnant should use this medication only when the benefits to treatment outweigh the risks as its safety has not been established. Breastfeeding women should avoid use as the medication may be transmitted through breast milk. The safety of this medication in children has not been confirmed, so caution should be taken when administering.
