Precautions
This medication can put a strain on the liver, so those who regularly consume more than three drinks a day should consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. The acetaminophen component in this medication may very rarely cause severe skin reactions, so if any rashes or allergic symptoms appear after taking it, discontinue use immediately. The maximum daily dosage of acetaminophen is 4,000mg, and care should be taken to ensure that the total amount of all acetaminophen products, including this medication, does not exceed this limit. Individuals with an allergy to this medication or its ingredients, those with a history of asthma, infants less than three months old, and those taking or recently having stopped specific antidepressants or psychiatric medications should avoid using this medication. It is also advisable to avoid taking this medication in conjunction with other cold medications, antipyretics, analgesics, sedatives, or antihistamines. Children suspected of having chickenpox or influenza, those with a history of allergies or drug allergies, and individuals with major organ diseases such as liver or kidney disease should definitely consult an expert before taking this medication. If any unusual symptoms appear while taking this medication, such as rash, itching, vomiting, dizziness, or difficulty breathing, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. Especially in cases of severe allergic reactions, skin disorders, or symptoms of liver dysfunction, immediate medical attention is required. Children under two years of age are generally advised not to take this medication unless necessary, in which case a doctor's consultation is required. Strictly adhere to the prescribed dosage and usage, avoid prolonged use, and abstain from alcohol. Furthermore, this medication may cause drowsiness, so caution should be exercised while driving or operating machinery.
