— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
Beta-blocker（如 Metoprolol）會降低心率與血壓，常引起姿勢性低血壓與頭暈。應指導病人緩慢改變姿勢並回報頭暈狀況，以免發生跌倒。其他選項通常為非預期的或是藥物改善心血管狀況後的正向反應。
Beta-blockers (such as metoprolol) lower heart rate and blood pressure and commonly cause orthostatic hypotension and dizziness. The patient should be instructed to change positions slowly and to report episodes of dizziness in order to prevent falls. The other options usually represent unexpected effects or favorable cardiovascular responses to the drug.
