A is correct. Kinpeygo modified-release capsules must be swallowed whole with water and must not be opened, crushed or chewed because doing so can alter the release profile. This instruction is formulation-specific. Administration methods used for some enteric granules or ordinary budesonide preparations cannot be assumed to apply.
