Richard is 70 years old and has a history of cardiac dysrhythmias. He has been prescribed nadolol. You do his annual laboratory work and find a CrCl of 25 ml/min. What action should you take related to his nadolol?
 
  1. Extend the dosage interval.
  2. Decrease the dose by 75.
  3. Take no action because this value is expected in the older adult.
  4. Schedule a serum creatinine level to validate the CrCl value.

Question 2

Beta blockers are the drugs of choice for exertional angina because they:
 
  1. Improve myocardial oxygen supply by vasodilating the coronary arteries
  2. Decrease myocardial oxygen demand by decreasing heart rate and vascular resistance
  3. Both 1 and 2
  4. Neither 1 nor 2

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
