    The correct answer is A. "If it makes me nauseated I can take the medication with crackers."

    Explanation:

    The anticholinergic antiparkinson medication administrated via oral is absorbed in the duodenum and the first portion of the jejunum. The stomach acts as a reservoir and the entrance to the circulatory system, from the intestine, is mediated by active transport. In this step, the medicine competes with other amino acids and ramified chains for its absorption and when they are taken together, they affect medication absorption. Among other considerations, administration of the medicament separated at least by 30 minutes of meals is a useful habit to optimize its kinetic.
