The answer is the first one: Reserpine.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Reserpine: This drug is contraindicated for clients with depressive disorders because it can deplete monoamines such as serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain, which can exacerbate or trigger depressive symptoms.

  2. Captopril: This is an ACE inhibitor used to treat hypertension. It does not have a known contraindication for clients with depressive disorders.

  3. Hydralazine: This is a vasodilator used to treat hypertension. It does not have a known contraindication for clients with depressive disorders.

  4. Eplerenone: This is a selective aldosterone receptor antagonist used to treat hypertension. It does not have a known contraindication for clients with depressive disorders.

Summary: Reserpine is contraindicated for clients with depressive disorders due to its potential to worsen depression by depleting neurotransmitters in the brain.

Help aline Live Cameron Terry 10/17/24 6:47 PM Question 28, 6.3.15 HW Score: 21.15%, 5.5 of 26 Part 1 of 3 Points: 0 of 1 Save When two births are randomly selected, the sample space for genders is bb, bg, gb, and gg. Assume that those four outcomes are equally likely. Construct a table that describes the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of girls from two births. Does the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of girls in two births? Does the result suggest that a sample proportion is an unbiased estimator of a population proportion? For the entire population, assume the probability of having a boy is 1/2, the probability of having a girl is 1/2, and this is not affected by how many boys or girls have previously been born. Determine the probabilities of each sample proportion. Sample proportion of girls Probability V □ ▽ □ V □ (Type integers or simplified fractions.)
