This medication can cause serious harm to the fetus and newborn if taken during pregnancy; therefore, it must be discontinued immediately upon confirmation of pregnancy. Caution is required when administering to patients with reduced blood volume as hypotension may occur upon initiation. Patients with a risk of myopathy or rhabdomyolysis must inform their physician immediately if symptoms such as muscle pain or weakness occur during treatment. This medication should not be taken by individuals with hypersensitivity to any of its components or those with specific liver or kidney diseases. Elderly patients or those with very low blood pressure, as well as patients with hyperkalemia should take this medication with caution and require regular blood tests. Since this medication may affect liver function, patients with hepatic impairment should undergo liver function tests before and during treatment. As this medication includes statin components, muscle-related adverse reactions may occur; hence, if severe muscle pain or weakness develops, immediate consultation with a physician is necessary. Due to blood pressure-lowering effects, dizziness or fainting may occur; caution is advised while driving or operating machinery. There is a potential for drug interactions when using this medication with other antihypertensive agents or lipid-lowering drugs, so consultation with a physician is essential before use.
