Answer to Question 1

Ans: B, C, E
Feedback:
Adverse effects from the use of a/b-adrenergic blockers like labetalol include fatigue, dizziness, hypotension, drowsiness, insomnia, weakness, diarrhea, dyspnea, chest pain, bradycardia, and skin rash.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, C, D
Feedback:
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.
