  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

  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
