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.

  1. Improve myocardial oxygen supply by vasodilating the coronary arteries
