Because this medication contains acetaminophen, care must be taken not to exceed the maximum daily dosage, and it should not be taken with other acetaminophen-containing medications to prevent liver damage. Care should also be exercised when taking medications that include pseudoephedrine, as serious adverse skin reactions may occur; if fever, redness, or small blisters develop, use should be stopped and a professional consulted.
