Precautions

This medication contains Ginkgo leaf dry extract as the active ingredient, and certain individuals should not take it. Individuals who are allergic to Ginkgo leaf dry extract or other components of this medication should not take it. Safety studies for children and adolescents are insufficient, so it should not be used by those under 18 years of age. It is also safer for pregnant women to avoid taking this medication. Additionally, it contains lactose, so individuals with lactose intolerance or certain genetic metabolic disorders should not take this medication. During the use of this medication, it should not be taken with anticoagulants or certain medications affecting blood coagulation. This medication may affect enzymes involved in the metabolism of other drugs in the liver, so caution is needed when used with medications such as calcium channel blockers or theophylline. In such cases, dosage adjustment and monitoring of the condition under a doctor's guidance are necessary. Individuals at risk of bleeding or taking medications that increase bleeding risk should consult their doctor or pharmacist before taking it. Breastfeeding women should also consult a professional as it is uncertain whether this medication passes into breast milk. Patients with epilepsy should be cautious as this medication may worsen seizures. Due to the bleeding risk while taking this medication, it should be discontinued at least 36 hours before any surgical procedures. The duration of use should be at least 8 weeks, and if symptoms do not improve or worsen after 3 months, a consultation with a doctor is advised. Some patients may experience gastrointestinal disturbances, headaches, insomnia, anxiety, skin allergic reactions, and in rare cases, serious allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis. Caution is advised due to reported cases of bleeding with long-term use. This medication is not a treatment for hypertension, so patients with high blood pressure need separate treatment. Store it out of reach of children and keep it in its original container to maintain the quality of the medication.
