This drug can cause potentially fatal gastrointestinal side effects like gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcers, or perforations, so elderly patients or those on long-term medication should closely monitor for any unusual symptoms while taking this drug. Patients with a history of gastrointestinal ulcers, bleeding, severe blood disorders, liver impairment, kidney impairment, heart failure, severe hypertension, or those allergic to this drug's ingredients should avoid its use. Individuals with a history of bronchial asthma or hypersensitivity to other anti-inflammatory analgesics like aspirin should also refrain from using this drug.
