This medicine can rarely cause a serious side effect called lactic acidosis, which occurs when excess lactic acid builds up in the body, creating a dangerous condition, so caution is necessary. Symptoms of lactic acidosis include fatigue, muscle pain, difficulty breathing, abdominal pain, and if these symptoms occur, the patient should immediately inform their doctor. This medicine can cause hypoglycemia when taken with insulin or sulfonylurea medications, so patients should be well informed about the symptoms of hypoglycemia and how to respond. Patients with impaired liver function or those who consume excessive alcohol should avoid taking this medicine, and alcohol intake should be avoided during the course of treatment. It is important to regularly check kidney function and vitamin B12 levels through blood tests. During the use of this medicine, if sudden severe abdominal pain, vomiting, skin rash, or difficulty breathing occur, patients should immediately consult healthcare professionals. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not take this medicine, and it is also not recommended for nursing mothers.
