Hypoglycemic symptoms may also occur, so when taken with insulin or sulfonylureas, blood sugar should be frequently monitored and dosage adjustments made as necessary. This drug can cause a serious metabolic disorder known as ketoacidosis, so if symptoms such as vomiting, abdominal pain, or difficulty breathing occur, seek medical consultation immediately. Ketoacidosis can occur even if blood sugar levels are within the normal range, so caution is needed. It is advisable that pregnant or breastfeeding women do not take this medication, and it should be discontinued immediately if pregnancy is confirmed. In cases of overdose, there is no specific antidote available, so appropriate treatment should be administered according to symptoms, and rapid management is needed if dehydration or hypotension symptoms appear.
