Precautions

This medication should not be used in certain patients. First, individuals who are allergic to the active ingredient or other components should avoid taking it. Additionally, patients with uncontrolled severe hypertension or significant heart disease may risk worsening symptoms if they take this medication. Caution is advised when administering this medication to patients with congenital or acquired conditions that can prolong the QT interval. Patients with a history of QT prolongation or those taking medications that can induce QT prolongation should pay special attention when taking this medication. It is not recommended for patients with end-stage renal disease or severe liver impairment, as the safety and effectiveness of this medication have not been thoroughly studied in these populations. Moreover, patients with severe renal impairment or moderate liver impairment who are taking strong CYP3A4 inhibitors should also avoid this medication. Patients with bladder outlet obstruction and those taking antimuscarinic agents for the treatment of overactive bladder should take caution due to the risk of side effects such as urinary retention when taking this medication. This medication contains Yellow No. 4 and Yellow No. 5 dyes, so caution is advised for individuals who are allergic to these ingredients. Common side effects include tachycardia and urinary tract infections. Rarely, abnormal cardiac responses such as atrial fibrillation have also been reported, and any such symptoms should prompt immediate consultation with medical personnel. This medication may increase blood pressure, so particularly hypertensive patients should regularly monitor their blood pressure and check their condition. It is advisable for women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, as well as breastfeeding women, to avoid taking this medication, as safety has not been established in individuals under 19 years of age. In case of overdose, increased heart rate and elevated blood pressure may occur, so immediate medical attention and monitoring should be sought if overdose is suspected.
