Answer to Question 1

B
Pharmacists have the most comprehensive knowledge about drug-drug and drug-nutrient interac-tions. The registered dietitian also has some expertise about drug-nutrient interactions. Physicians and nurses generally have less knowledge on this topic.

Answer to Question 2

B
Warfarin is a vitamin K antagonist and prevents activation of the storage form of vitamin K. High intakes of vitamin K reduce the efficacy of the drug. Vitamins A, B12, and D do not affect the action of warfarin.
