Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the health history of a client who experiences migraine headaches and has asked about a prescription for sumatriptan. Which of the following conditions should the nurse identify as a contraindication for taking sumatriptan?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Coronary artery disease. Sumatriptan is a vasoconstrictor and can constrict coronary arteries, potentially leading to chest pain or heart attack in individuals with coronary artery disease. This contraindication is due to the increased risk of cardiovascular events. Asthma (choice
A), kidney disease (choice
B), and rheumatoid arthritis (choice
C) are not contraindications for taking sumatriptan. Asthma is not directly affected by sumatriptan, kidney disease does not have a direct interaction with sumatriptan, and rheumatoid arthritis is not a contraindication for sumatriptan use.
