This medication should not be used in patients who have previously shown allergic reactions to this drug or its other components. It should be used cautiously in patients taking other serotonergic agents, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs). Serious allergic reactions such as shock or anaphylaxis may occur when using this medication; therefore, if such symptoms appear, usage should be immediately discontinued and appropriate treatment sought. Additionally, cases of seizures similar to epilepsy have been reported, so if such symptoms arise, direct consultation with healthcare professionals is necessary. Side effects such as headaches, diarrhea, constipation, liver dysfunction, itching, and rash may occur; if these symptoms are severe or persistent, consult a physician. This medication is primarily recommended for use in conjunction with strong anticancer agents that cause significant nausea and vomiting, so it is advisable not to use it in other situations. Serotonin syndrome, a serious condition, may rarely occur, so careful monitoring of the condition is necessary when used in conjunction with other serotonergic medications. This medication is metabolized in the liver; therefore, caution is needed when used with other drugs that may affect liver function. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should only use this medication when the benefits of treatment are determined to outweigh the risks, and breastfeeding should be discontinued while using this medication. Safety in pediatric patients has not been sufficiently established; therefore, it should be used cautiously in children. Elderly patients may have diminished body function, so care should be taken to closely monitor for adverse reactions. This medication should not be mixed with certain other injectable solutions, as issues may arise; therefore, it is safer not to mix. Finally, animal trials have reported potential effects on fetuses, so particular caution is advised during pregnancy.
