Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

The role of nutrition therapy in pharmacotherapy is to highlight the effect of nutrition on the action of the prescribed medication or the effect of the medication on an aspect of nutrition. Drugnutrient interactions are undesirable/harmful interaction(s) between food and over-the-counter medications, prescribed medications, herbals, botanicals, and/or dietary supplements that diminishes, enhances, or alters effect of nutrients and/or medications. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics emphasizes a collaborative model of health care that allows maximum benefit from the use of both pharmacotherapy and nutrition therapy. For example, grapefruit interferes with absorption of Zocor and could significantly change availability of this medication.
