Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Because their duration of action is approximately 4 to 6 hr, these drugs were more suited to maintain therapy than catecholamines and could be taken on a four-times-daily schedule.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Arformoterol (Brovana), the single (R)-isomer of formoterol, is the newest long-acting beta ago-nist on the market.
