A 31-year-old woman complains of severe low back pain after playing tennis for 4 hours. She begins taking ibuprofen every 3 hours but finds little relief. She is prescribed codeine for her pain relief. Her physician also prescribes misoprostol, since the patient has a history of a bleeding gastric ulcer 1 year earlier after taking ibuprofen. She has also been taking sumatriptan for frequent migraine headaches. Which of the following is the most appropriate advice for this patient?
A. Avoid dietary potassium
B. Increase dietary roughage
C. Use an effective method of contraception
D. Increase her daily folate intake
