Rarely, hematological abnormalities, allergic reactions, liver function abnormalities, and severe skin reactions may occur. Long-term use may lead to hypomagnesemia, so it is important to regularly check magnesium levels in the blood. This medication reduces stomach acidity and may increase the risk of certain bacterial infections; if diarrhea persists, consult a physician. Furthermore, long-term or high-dose use may increase the risk of fractures, so patients at risk for osteoporosis require regular check-ups.
