Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A psychiatrist prescribes a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) for a client. When teaching the client about food interactions with the medication which foods will the nurse caution the client to avoid?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Pepperoni pizza and red wine. MAOIs interact with tyramine-rich foods like aged cheeses, cured meats, and alcoholic beverages. Pepperoni pizza contains cured meat (pepperoni) and red wine is an alcoholic beverage. Consuming these foods while on MAOIs can lead to a hypertensive crisis due to the accumulation of tyramine in the body.

Choices A, B, and D do not contain tyramine-rich foods and are safe to consume with MAOIs.
