While taking this medication, gastrointestinal discomfort may occur, such as nausea, dyspepsia, and abdominal pain. In addition, symptoms of skeletal muscle abnormalities such as infection symptoms or muscle pain and joint pain may occur, so caution is needed. Neurological symptoms such as dizziness or headaches may also rarely occur, so caution is required when driving or operating machinery. Rarely, hypersensitivity reactions such as skin rashes, itching, and hives may appear. If such symptoms occur, it is important to immediately discontinue the use of this medication. There is also a possibility of severe adverse reactions such as liver dysfunction or a decrease in blood cell counts occurring, so consult a doctor immediately if any symptoms appear. Women who are pregnant or likely to be pregnant should consult with a physician before taking this medication, and breastfeeding should be avoided while taking this medication. In the case of children and adolescents, the safety of this medication has not been sufficiently confirmed, so caution should be exercised when using it.
