Individuals who are allergic to this medication or its components, have experienced asthma, infants under three months of age, or those taking certain antidepressants or psychiatric medications should not use this medication.

This medication should not be administered to children under 2 years old except in special cases, and careful observation by a guardian is needed when given to children. The prescribed dosage and administration should be strictly followed, and prolonged use is not recommended. Alcohol should be avoided during treatment, as drowsiness may occur, and driving or operating machinery should be refrained from.
