If symptoms such as rash, skin redness, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, dizziness appear while taking this medication, stop taking it immediately and consult a professional. Caution is necessary if taken with potassium-containing drugs, licorice, or certain diuretics, as side effects like hypokalemia or muscle weakness may occur. If symptoms such as decreased urine output, swelling of the face or limbs, heavy eyelids, hand stiffness, increased blood pressure, or headaches appear, stop taking it immediately and consult a doctor. Long-term use of licorice containing a certain amount may lead to symptoms of hyperaldosteronism such as increased blood pressure, edema, and weight gain, so regular blood tests are necessary. If symptoms such as muscle weakness, lethargy, limb cramps, or paralysis due to hypokalemia occur, stop taking it immediately. Always follow the prescribed dosage and frequency, and if symptoms do not improve, stop taking it and consult a professional. Close supervision by a guardian is necessary when children take this medication, and it is essential not to administer it to children under 2 years of age. Care should be taken not to use it for prolonged periods, especially when containing a certain amount of licorice, hence limiting the duration of use. It is safest not to take this medication in conjunction with other cold medicines, cough suppressants, antihistamines, sedatives, or alcohol. Store this medication out of reach of children, avoiding direct sunlight and keeping it in a cool, dry place. If transferred to another container from the original, misuse or degradation of drug quality may occur, so it must be stored in the original container.
