Use in Elderly Patients
Suitable for older adults, with specific precautions. For short-term use only. Consider adverse renal effect in chronic kidney disease. Do not use in severe renal impairment.

Consider potential interactions especially with preparations that increase risk of bleeding. (updated 16.9.2024)
