This medication can rarely cause serious allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, so careful monitoring is required. If symptoms like facial paleness, low blood pressure, or irregular heartbeats occur, administration should be stopped immediately. In addition, rare hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rashes may occur; if these symptoms appear, the use of the drug should be discontinued. Gastrointestinal side effects may include decreased appetite, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain; consulting with healthcare professionals is advisable if these symptoms occur. The medication should be dissolved and used immediately after preparing from the vial, and should not be reused after storage. When administering an intramuscular injection, it should be injected carefully to avoid nerves and blood vessels, and it is advisable to alternate injection sites during repeated administration. Special care is particularly important when administering to children and adolescents. The drug must be stored in a safe place out of reach of children, and transferring it to other containers may lead to misuse or degradation of quality, so it must be kept well-closed in the original container.
