A change in CYP2A6 can impact the metabolism of nicotine, leading to decreased smoking cessation success rates and increased risk of lung cancer. Therefore, planning additional time and interventions to help the client stop smoking and increased surveillance for the development of lung cancer are appropriate interventions. Avoiding caffeine-containing drugs and using an alternative to warfarin are not necessarily related to a change in CYP2A6. Frequent monitoring of blood pressure may be necessary based on the client's individual health status but is not directly related to a change in CYP2A6.
