[Contraindications]
(This medication should not be used in the following patients): 1. Patients with aldosteronism, myopathy, or hypokalemia (it may worsen hypokalemia and hypertension). 2. Patients with advanced liver cirrhosis who are prone to elevated blood ammonia levels (methionine metabolites in this preparation can inhibit urea synthesis, thereby reducing ammonia processing capacity).
[Precautions]
1. Use with caution in elderly patients (elderly patients have a higher incidence of hypokalemia) (see medication for elderly patients). 2. General Precautions: Because this preparation contains glycyrrhizin, concomitant use with other licorice-containing preparations can increase glycyrrhizin levels in the body and increase the risk of pseudoaldosteronism, so caution should be exercised.
