This medication contains the artificial sweetener aspartame, which breaks down into phenylalanine in the body. Therefore, patients with phenylketonuria, a genetic disorder that requires the restriction of phenylalanine, should not take this medication. The maximum allowable daily intake of aspartame should be limited to below 40mg/kg according to WHO guidelines, and for a 60kg adult, care should be taken not to exceed a maximum of 2.4g per day. This medication also contains lactose, so patients with galactose intolerance, Lapp lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not take it. Rarely, gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea or dry mouth may occur during use, and skin allergic reactions or acute generalized pustular psoriasis may also manifest. Additionally, rarely, feelings of malaise or diplopia may occur, so if these symptoms arise, measures such as reducing or temporarily discontinuing the medication should be taken. Since this medication has a muscle relaxant effect, it is advisable to avoid taking it together with analgesics such as morphine or its derivatives. It is preferable for pregnant women, especially in the first trimester, not to take this medication, and it is also advisable not to use it during breastfeeding.
