Question 1 of 5
A 43-year-old man with a long history of exertional angina was recently diagnosed with migraine. Which of the following anti-migraine drugs would be contraindicated in this patient?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Sumatriptan. As a 43-year-old man with a history of exertional angina, sumatriptan is contraindicated due to its potential vasoconstrictive effects, which can exacerbate angina symptoms and increase the risk of cardiovascular events. Aspirin (A) is commonly used for cardiovascular protection. Acetaminophen (B) is a safe option for pain relief in patients with angina. Ibuprofen (D) should be used with caution but is not contraindicated as it mainly affects platelet function rather than causing significant vasoconstriction.
