Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enalapril (an ACE inhibitor) and carvedilol (a beta blocker) are both recommended for clients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (less than 40%) based on clinical trials and guidelines. They work together to improve heart function, reduce symptoms, and reduce the risk of hospitalization and death. Option B (digoxin and furosemide) is a possible combination for symptomatic relief, but it does not address the underlying pathophysiology of heart failure. Option C (lisinopril and isosorbide dinitrate) is not commonly used together and may have limited benefits in heart failure. Option D (metoprolol and HCTZ) is not recommended as HCTZ may worsen heart failure and is generally not used in clients with ejection fraction less than 40%.
