Precautions

This medication may affect liver function; if liver function tests worsen or jaundice symptoms appear, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. This medication contains zinc, which may interfere with copper absorption, potentially resulting in blood abnormalities or anemia due to copper deficiency in patients with poor nutritional status. If such symptoms are suspected, appropriate treatment is necessary. If allergic symptoms such as rash, itching, or hives appear during use, discontinue the medication and consult a physician. This medication may cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, dyspepsia, constipation, vomiting, heartburn, and diarrhea; if symptoms are severe, inform healthcare personnel. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should carefully consider the risks and benefits before using this medication, and breastfeeding women should avoid it as the drug may be transmitted through breast milk. Safety in pediatric patients has not been sufficiently established; therefore, it should be used with caution in children. Elderly patients may have decreased digestive function; therefore, it is important to monitor symptoms and adjust the dosage accordingly. This medication may reduce the effectiveness of other medications; precautions should be taken to avoid taking it simultaneously with penicillamine or levothyroxine sodium.
