Common side effects include nausea, headache, and fatigue. In rare cases, allergic reactions or liver function impairment may occur, requiring close monitoring of patients.
Brivudine is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women unless the benefits outweigh the risks. Patients should inform their doctor about all medications they are taking to avoid drug interactions.
