Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. Headache is a common side effect of nitrates. Nitroglycerin, a common topical nitrate, is often prescribed for angina to dilate blood vessels and improve blood flow to the heart. One common side effect of nitrates is headache due to vasodilation, and acetaminophen is often prescribed to help alleviate this headache.

Choices A and B are incorrect as they do not directly relate to why acetaminophen is prescribed with nitrates.
Choice D is incorrect because acetaminophen does not potentiate the therapeutic effect of nitrates, it only helps with headache relief.
Choice E is a duplicate of D.
