When administered for the first time to patients with significantly low blood pressure or insufficient blood volume, hypotensive symptoms may occur, requiring caution.

This medication can affect liver function, so anyone with a history of liver disease or symptoms of liver dysfunction should consult a healthcare provider immediately. Patients at higher risk of muscle-related side effects should have muscle enzyme levels tested prior to administration and should receive immediate evaluation if any muscle symptoms occur during treatment. Interactions with other medications may occur, so anyone taking other drugs should inform their healthcare provider and be cautious, especially when using this medication with antihypertensives, lipid-lowering agents, or certain antibiotics.
