Precautions concerning the administration of the drug: For drugs that are dispensed in a press-through package (PTP), instruct patients to remove the drug from the package before use. If the PTP sheet is swallowed, the sharp corners of the sheet may puncture the esophageal mucosa and cause a perforation, resulting in severe complications including mediastinitis.
