Precautions

This medication is made from an extract of Ginkgo leaves, and those with allergies to specific components should not take it. Safety and efficacy in children and adolescents have not been sufficiently verified, so it is recommended not to take it if under 18 years of age. Pregnant women should not take this medication, and those with lactose intolerance or specific genetic metabolic disorders should also avoid it. It is important not to take this medication with blood-thinning drugs or anticoagulants. Additionally, this medication may affect the metabolism of other drugs, so caution is needed when taken with certain antihypertensives or asthma treatments. Those at risk of bleeding or with bleeding disorders must consult with a professional before taking it. Breastfeeding women should discuss with an expert as it is uncertain if this medication is transmitted through breast milk. Caution is needed for epilepsy patients as seizures may worsen when taking this medication. If scheduled for surgery, it is recommended to discontinue this medication at least 36 hours prior to reduce the risk of bleeding. The duration of treatment should be at least 8 weeks based on symptoms, and if symptoms do not improve or worsen after 3 months, consult a doctor. Side effects such as nausea, headache, insomnia, skin rash, etc., may occur, and severe allergic reactions could happen. Cases of bleeding have been reported with prolonged use, so caution is warranted. This medication is not an antihypertensive, so patients with high blood pressure require separate treatment. Store in a safe place out of reach of children, and keep in the original container to maintain quality.
