e. all of the above

In Swanson, it says CCBs benefits patients with non-Q wave MI. New to me, what do you think?

Do you mean the answer is "e" ?


  #5

I agree with answer d, CCB's dont decrease myocardial mortality and are only used if there is some major contraindication to use of Beta blockers (Kaplan for usmle step3)
