This medication contains lactose, so people with lactose intolerance or genetic conditions like lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not use it. During the course of this medication, it is essential to avoid using specific medications like phosphates, calcium salts, oral tetracycline antibiotics, antacids, and levodopa. Patients receiving treatment from a physician or those with gi tract diseases such as hyperoxaluria, peptic ulcers, chronic ulcerative colitis, or localized colitis should consult with healthcare professionals prior to use. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, breastfeeding mothers, premature infants, and infants also require consultation with a specialist before use. Caution is advised for individuals with heart or circulatory issues, kidney disorders, hypoproteinemia, gout, or a history of kidney stones. If symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, dermatitis, hair loss, gastrointestinal discomfort, cardiac arrhythmias, hypotension, or pulmonary edema occur during use, the medication should be discontinued immediately, and a healthcare professional should be consulted. Additionally, if menstrual cycles become earlier than expected or if bleeding persists for an extended time, use should be halted. Women taking estrogen-containing oral contraceptives or patients with a predisposition to thrombosis should be cautious, as the risk of thrombosis may increase when taking this medication. Long-term high-dose use can lead to tolerance development and may cause neuropathy or hematological adverse reactions when combined with certain vitamins. High doses can also exacerbate peptic ulcers, cause impaired glucose tolerance, hyperuricemia, or liver damage, so caution is essential. This medication must be taken according to the prescribed dosage and regimen, and it is preferable to avoid consuming tannin-containing teas like green tea or black tea while taking it. Furthermore, this medication may change the color of urine to yellow, potentially affecting clinical test results, and can interfere with blood glucose detection in urine tests.
