This medication may pose a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding for individuals who regularly consume more than three alcoholic beverages daily, so it is essential to consult a doctor or pharmacist. Patients who are allergic to this drug or its components, or those with peptic ulcers, aspirin-induced asthma, hemophilia, severe liver disease, kidney disease, cardiac dysfunction, or a predisposition to bleeding should not take this medication. Additionally, those taking high doses of methotrexate, certain antiviral medications, pregnant or breastfeeding women should avoid this medication. Patients with impaired kidney or liver function, cardiovascular disease, blood disorders, asthma, a history of allergies, elderly patients, and those taking anticoagulants should use this medication with caution, and individuals at risk of hemolytic anemia should also take care when using it. This medication can cause various side effects such as skin rashes, urticaria, severe allergic reactions, gastrointestinal bleeding, liver and kidney dysfunction, and neurological symptoms; if any unusual symptoms occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor. Especially in children under 14 years of age, serious symptoms can occur after taking this medication during varicella or influenza infections, so use should be cautious. Long-term use of this medication requires regular blood tests and liver function tests, as high doses or prolonged use may increase the risk of side effects. Aspirin may increase the risk of bleeding during surgery, so if surgery is planned, patients must inform the healthcare team of their aspirin use. During this medication's use, combining with other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, anticoagulants, or certain antidepressants may increase the risk of bleeding, so it is advisable to consult with a doctor. During pregnancy, it may pose risks to both the fetus and the mother, so it should not be used; breastfeeding may also allow the components to be passed into breast milk, so it should be avoided during this time. Elderly patients may experience side effects more easily due to decreased liver function, thus they should monitor their symptoms closely. In case of overdose, severe toxicity symptoms may arise, so the prescribed dosage must be strictly followed, and if unusual symptoms occur, seek immediate medical care.
