Understand the Problem
The questions are asking about pharmacology and its related concepts, particularly focusing on the uses and effects of various drugs in the treatment of diseases and conditions. Each question presents multiple choices concerning drug classification, effects of drug withdrawal, and specific uses of antihypertensive medications.
Answer
Pharmacotherapy; tachycardia or elevated blood pressure; Bisoprolol; hyperglycemia; Valsartan.
The use of drugs to diagnose, prevent, or treat disease or to prevent pregnancy is termed as pharmacotherapy. Abrupt withdrawal of a beta blocker may induce tachycardia or elevated blood pressure. Beta blockers, like Bisoprolol, are good for a patient with concomitant angina pectoris. One adverse effect not associated with alpha blockers is hyperglycemia. All except Candesartan, Losartan, and Valsartan are angiotensin II receptor blockers for hypertension.
Answer for screen readers
The use of drugs to diagnose, prevent, or treat disease or to prevent pregnancy is termed as pharmacotherapy. Abrupt withdrawal of a beta blocker may induce tachycardia or elevated blood pressure. Beta blockers, like Bisoprolol, are good for a patient with concomitant angina pectoris. One adverse effect not associated with alpha blockers is hyperglycemia. All except Candesartan, Losartan, and Valsartan are angiotensin II receptor blockers for hypertension.
More Information
Beta blockers like Bisoprolol are effective in treating conditions such as hypertension and angina pectoris. Withdrawing beta blockers abruptly can lead to rebound effects like high blood pressure. Out of several angiotensin II receptor blockers, drugs like Losartan are known for managing hypertension.
Tips
A common mistake is discontinuing beta blockers abruptly without consulting a healthcare provider, which can lead to adverse cardiovascular events.
