Any gastrointestinal symptoms or signs of bleeding should be reported to healthcare professionals immediately, and in severe cases, discontinuation of use may be necessary.

If symptoms such as rash, itching, vomiting, abdominal pain, or dizziness occur while taking this medication, discontinue use immediately and consult healthcare professionals. In case of severe allergic reactions, skin or mucous membrane abnormalities, or exacerbation of asthma, emergency treatment may be required. This medication should be used at the minimum possible dose for the shortest duration necessary, and long-term use should be avoided. It is advisable not to consume alcohol while taking this medication, and caution is particularly necessary for patients with hypertension, heart failure, or weakened kidney or liver function.
