This medication should not be used in patients with bleeding. Those with bleeding disorders such as hemophilia or gastrointestinal ulcers should be particularly cautious. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should not take this medication, and breastfeeding women should also avoid use. This medication contains lactose, so individuals with genetic issues such as galactose intolerance or lactase deficiency should not take it. Women menstruating or patients with a tendency to bleed, as well as those taking anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents, should be especially cautious when using this medication. Patients with severely impaired kidney function and the elderly may also be affected by drug excretion, so caution is needed. During the use of this medication, severe side effects such as bleeding symptoms, liver function abnormalities, and blood abnormalities may occur, so symptoms should be observed closely. Mild side effects such as skin rash, itching, dyspepsia, headache, and dizziness may also occur, and if any abnormal symptoms arise, immediate consultation with healthcare personnel is advised. It is recommended to have regular blood tests to monitor health status during treatment with this medication. The risk of bleeding may increase when taken with anticoagulants or antiplatelet agents, so caution should be exercised when combined. Safety in children and adolescents has not been established, so it is advisable not to use it in this population. Elderly patients should start with a lower dose due to potential declines in kidney and liver function, and their condition should be closely monitored. This medication should be kept out of reach of children, and transferring it to other containers should be avoided as it may compromise quality.
