Harold, a 42-year-old African American, has moderate persistent asthma. Which of the following asthma medications should be used cautiously, if at all?
 
  1. Betamethasone, an inhaled corticosteroid
  2. Salmeterol, an inhaled long-acting beta-agonist
  3. Albuterol, a short-acting beta-agonist
  4. Montelukast, a leukotriene modifier

Question 2

Long-acting beta-agonists (LTBAs) received a Black Box Warning from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration due to the:
 
  1. Risk of life-threatening dermatological reactions
  2. Increased incidence of cardiac events when LTBAs are used
  3. Increased risk of asthma-related deaths when LTBAs are used
  4. Risk for life-threatening alterations in electrolytes
