Richard Perry is a 64 year old patient who has been successfully treated for HTN for over 15 years with propranolol (Inderal). Mr. Perry is allergic to cats. However, he recently visited his grandson who has a new kitten. He now has weepy eyes and a runny nose. He is considering taking the OTC medication pseudoephedrine (Sudafed) to relieve the allergy symptoms.
Critical Thinking Questions:
- Is it safe for him to take these medications at the same time? Why or why not?
- What is your concern related to the use of these two medications concurrently?
- Is there another OTC medication that might be safer? Why or why not?
