Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client who has a new prescription for warfarin about foods that affect the INR. The nurse should include in the teaching that which of the following foods interact with this medication?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Kale. Kale is high in vitamin K, which can interfere with the anticoagulant effects of warfarin by increasing the clotting factors in the blood, leading to a decreased INR. It is important for patients on warfarin to maintain a consistent intake of vitamin K-rich foods to ensure their INR remains within the therapeutic range. Orange juice (
A), beef stew (
C), and yogurt (
D) do not significantly interact with warfarin. A summary of why they are incorrect: Orange juice does not have a direct interaction with warfarin. Beef stew does not contain significant amounts of vitamin K. Yogurt is not a high vitamin K food.
