KROK 1 Stomatology 2016 – Question 125 · KROK (Dentistry)

A 42-year-old woman has been administered propranolol for the ischemic heart disease. Yet she has been found to have a concomitant condition that renders propranolol to be contraindicated. What disease is it?

  1. A. Arterial hypertension
  2. B. Cholecystitis
  3. C. Myasthenia
  4. D. Duodenal ulcer
  5. E. Bronchial asthma
Hint

Remember that propranolol is non-selective; think which organs besides the heart depend on beta-adrenergic tone and what blocking it there would do.
