This medication may put a strain on the liver, so individuals who regularly consume more than three glasses of alcohol a day should consult with a doctor or pharmacist before taking it. The ingredients in this medication can rarely cause serious skin reactions, so if a rash or other abnormal symptoms occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a specialist. It contains acetaminophen, so caution should be taken to not exceed the maximum daily dosage, and it should not be taken in conjunction with other acetaminophen-containing products.

If symptoms such as rash, itching, vomiting, dizziness, or tremors occur during use, discontinue immediately and consult a doctor or pharmacist. Especially if severe allergic reactions, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, asthma attacks, liver dysfunction, respiratory distress, or severe headaches occur, seek immediate medical help. This medication should not be administered to children under 2 years old, and if absolutely necessary, a doctor’s consultation is required. When taking, adhere to the prescribed method and dosage, avoid long-term use, and ensure children are supervised by a guardian when taking it.
