This drug may rarely cause serious muscle damage leading to kidney problems, so if symptoms of muscle pain or weakness occur, it is essential to consult a doctor immediately. Patients with severe infections, hypotension, significant surgery or trauma, or metabolic disorders may need to temporarily discontinue or stop using this drug. Patients allergic to any component of this drug, those with severely impaired liver function, those with muscular diseases, pregnant women, or nursing mothers should not take this drug. Additionally, it should not be used in combination with certain antiviral medications. Patients with a history of alcohol abuse or liver disease, the elderly, those with compromised kidney function, and those with hypothyroidism should exercise extra caution when using this drug. There may be drug interactions when taken with certain antihypertensive medications, diabetes medications, or antibiotics, so it is important to inform your doctor or pharmacist. Regular monitoring of liver function tests and muscle-related tests is necessary while taking this drug, and treatment may be suspended if abnormalities in liver function or severe muscle pain occur. Women of childbearing age should use adequate contraception during treatment, and if pregnancy is confirmed, treatment should be discontinued. There may be symptoms such as dizziness or drowsiness, so caution is needed when driving or operating hazardous machinery. There is no specific antidote for overdose, so one should visit a hospital immediately for symptomatic treatment.
