The prescriber orders propranolol (Inderal) for a patient with a blood pressure reading of 200/106. An electrocardiogram taken shortly afterward shows an atrioventricular (AV) block.
 
  The nurse should immediately hold the propranolol and report this finding to the prescriber for which reason?
  a. Lowering the blood pressure will require at least two different drugs.
  b. Beta blockers can intensify an AV block.
  c. Some reflex tachycardia may be associated with this agent.
  d. The drug may cause a cough, which might further disrupt the cardiac rhythm.
