Question 1 of 5
A client diagnosed with a urinary tract infection (UTI) is prescribed sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim (Bactrim). Which of the following conditions below would be a contraindication for this medication?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Chronic kidney disease (CK
D). Sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim is primarily eliminated by the kidneys, thus in patients with CKD, the impaired kidney function can lead to drug accumulation and potential toxicity. Multiple sclerosis (
A), megaloblastic anemia (
C), and Helicobacter Pylori (
D) are not contraindications for sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim as they do not directly impact the drug's metabolism or excretion.
