Precautions:

Inform your doctor if you have kidney, liver, or heart problems.
Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium unless directed by your physician.
Not recommended during pregnancy.
Exercise caution when driving or operating machinery if dizziness occurs.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure and kidney function is advised during treatment.
