Answer:

There is a need to monitor closely for bleeding and review coagulation indices when accessible.  

Explanation:

Combining warfarin with TCAs develops a threat for bleeding that should be assessed in the nursing care plan. There is no familiar association between the calcium supplements or bisphosphonates and TCAs, which would develop a threat of hypocalcemia. The TCAs do not elevate the threat of gastroesophageal reflux. The TCAs can influence blood pressure, however, this is not associated with any known drug-drug associations.

Combining TCAs with warfarin creates a risk for bleeding, which should be addressed in the nursing care plan. There is no known interaction between TCAs and calcium supplements or bisphosphonates that would create a risk for hypocalcemia. TCAs do not heighten the risk of gastroesophageal reflux. TCAs can affect blood pressure, but this is unrelated to any known drug-drug interactions.

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is A the compound is a competitive inhibitor

Explanation:

Competitive inhibitor competes with the substrate to bind to the active site of the target enzyme and after binding to the active site the inhibitor slow down or stop the reaction catalyzed by that enzyme.

          Competitive inhibitor basically effects the Km value of the enzyme thus decreasing the activity of the later.

           Increasing the substrate concentration displace the inhibitor from the enzyme"s active site thus reducing the inhibitory effects of the later thus increasing the activity of the enzyme.
