This medication can cause serious harm to the fetus and newborn if taken during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, so it must be discontinued immediately upon confirmation of pregnancy. Patients with allergies to any ingredients in this medication, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and patients with severe kidney or liver dysfunction should not take this medication. Patients who are sodium or fluid depleted should check their condition before taking this medication and supplement if necessary, and take immediate appropriate measures if symptoms of hypotension occur. Patients with high potassium levels should be cautious when taking this medication along with potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics and should frequently check their blood potassium levels. Patients with vascular issues in the kidneys or those who have recently undergone kidney transplantation should use this medication with caution, as it may affect kidney function.

Patients with heart failure or after a myocardial infarction should take this medication while periodically monitoring kidney function. Patients with acute myocardial infarction or aortic stenosis should also be cautious when taking this medication.

In case of overdose, severe hypotension or cardiac function deterioration may occur, requiring immediate hospital treatment.
