Cautions should be taken as irregular meals, vigorous exercise, and interactions with other medications can increase the risk of hypoglycemia or lactic acidosis.

This medication is not suitable for patients with type 1 diabetes who require insulin therapy. If symptoms of acute pancreatitis occur, treatment should be stopped immediately, and due to the risk of lactic acidosis, treatment should be paused in the event of dehydration, severe diarrhea, vomiting, or fever, and medical personnel should be informed.
