This medication may cause a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding in individuals who regularly consume more than three alcoholic drinks per day, so it must be discussed with a healthcare provider or pharmacist. This medication can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases; therefore, it should be used in the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration to avoid serious cardiovascular issues, such as myocardial infarction or stroke. Severe gastrointestinal issues such as perforation, ulcers, and bleeding may occur, so those with a history of gastrointestinal diseases or the elderly should use it with caution, and seek immediate medical advice if unusual symptoms arise. This medication should not be administered to individuals with allergies to specific components, those with asthma, severe cardiovascular diseases, or severely impaired liver and kidney function, as well as pregnant or nursing women. Patients with impaired liver or kidney function, or a history of hypertension, heart failure, or asthma should take this medication cautiously and closely monitor their condition during treatment. While taking this medication, side effects such as dyspepsia, headache, skin rash, swelling, and increased blood pressure may occur, and if serious symptoms manifest, use should be immediately discontinued and a doctor consulted. This medication can affect liver and kidney function, so regular blood tests and liver function checks are important to identify any abnormalities. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not take this medication, and it should be stopped immediately if pregnancy is confirmed during treatment. Elderly patients may have decreased liver and kidney function, requiring special caution when using this medication. This medication can interact with other drugs, so it is essential to inform the healthcare provider or pharmacist of any current medications, particularly antihypertensives, anticoagulants, and antidepressants, to prevent potential interactions. Dizziness or drowsiness may occur, so it is advisable to avoid driving or operating machinery during treatment. This medication does not affect platelet function and cannot be used as an alternative to aspirin for cardiovascular disease prevention. Long-term use requires regular blood tests and liver and kidney function checks to stop the medication if abnormalities are found. In some patients, this medication may trigger severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis, so immediate medical attention is necessary if symptoms like rash, itching, or difficulty breathing occur after taking it. Before and during the use of this medication, consult with a healthcare provider or pharmacist to determine a safe usage method suited to individual health conditions.
