What lifestyle advice should be given to patients on coagulation modifiers?

Increase sedentary activities
Engage in high-impact sports
Maintain a healthy lifestyle
Avoid all social interactions

The correct answer is: Maintain a healthy lifestyle

Coagulation modifiers are medications that affect the blood's ability to form clots. Patients who are prescribed coagulation modifiers must be given proper lifestyle advice to prevent any adverse reactions. The incorrect options, A and B, involve activities that may increase the risk of bleeding or injury for patients taking these medications. Option D, avoiding all social interactions, is not necessary for patients taking coagulation modifiers. Therefore, the best advice for patients is to maintain a healthy lifestyle, as this promotes overall wellbeing and helps manage any potential side effects of the medication.
