Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is to start taking cyclosporine following a kidney transplant. The nurse should instruct the client that which of the following foods can have an adverse interaction with this medication?

A. Grapefruit juice B. Pepperoni C. Smoked salmon D. Orange juice

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Grapefruit juice. Grapefruit juice can inhibit the enzyme responsible for metabolizing cyclosporine, leading to increased levels of the medication in the body and potential toxicity. Pepperoni, smoked salmon, and orange juice do not have documented interactions with cyclosporine. Grapefruit juice contains compounds that interfere with drug metabolism enzymes, making it important to avoid when taking certain medications.
