Precautions

Do not take this medication if you are allergic to it or any ingredient contained in this product. Additionally, this product contains lactose and should not be taken by individuals with genetic conditions such as galactose intolerance, Lapp lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption. While taking this medication, do not take other medications containing vitamin B6 alongside levodopa, as it may reduce the effectiveness of levodopa. If you are undergoing treatment by a physician, pregnant, or breastfeeding, be sure to consult with a doctor or pharmacist before taking this medication. If symptoms do not improve after about a month of taking this medication, consult a doctor or pharmacist. If any skin allergic symptoms such as hives, rash, or itching occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. If symptoms such as loss of appetite, abdominal bloating, nausea, vomiting, or loose stools appear, stop taking and consult a doctor or pharmacist. Taking high doses of vitamin B6 (1 gram or more per day) over a short period may be harmful to nerves. This product contains vitamin B6, and prolonged use for more than 6 months may increase the risk of neuropathy. Caution should be taken when newborns or infants take this medication, as serious side effects like severe sedation, hypotension, and respiratory difficulties may occur. If this medication is accidentally overdosed, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. Always follow the prescribed dosage and regimen. Prolonged use of pyridoxine antagonists, alcohol, or estrogen-containing oral contraceptives may lead to vitamin B6 deficiency. Furthermore, the medication 5-fluorouracil may interfere with the action of thiamine, so caution is advised. Store this medication out of reach of children, avoiding direct sunlight and keeping it in a cool, dry place. To maintain quality, do not transfer to another container, and prevent misuse.
