Ans: B, C, E

A nurse should carefully observe clients with asthma (bronchospasm can result with the use of nonselective b blockers) and diabetes (b blockers can mask the symptoms of hypoglycemia) during the use of propranolol (Inderal), a nonselective b blocker. The drug also should be used cautiously in clients with peptic ulcer disease.
