While taking this medication, it is important not to take it with blood-thinning medications. For example, taking it with warfarin or aspirin may increase the risk of bleeding.

If abnormal reactions such as nausea, headache, insomnia, anxiety, skin rashes, etc. occur during use, immediate consultation with a professional is necessary. Prolonged use may lead to bleeding, so caution is advised.
