In the ER, you see a 17-year-old male patient who was brought in by his family for acute, severe agitation and aggressiveness. His blood pressure is 175/100, and he appears very restless with noticeably rapid, loud speech. He is unable to answer questions appropriately. A urinary drug screen (UDS) is found to be positive for cocaine. Which of the following medications would be the most appropriate for calming this young man?
A. Alprazolam
B. Atenolol
C. Haldol
D. Terazosin
E. Zolpidem
