Which medication is not listed as a key IV hypertension medication?

  1. Chlorothiazide

  2. Amlodipine

  3. Propranolol

  4. Esmolol

The correct answer is: Amlodipine

Amlodipine is not commonly listed as a key IV hypertension medication. This is because it is primarily used in oral form for treating hypertension, but in cases where IV medication is necessary, there are other options that are more commonly prescribed. Chlorothiazide, Propranolol, and Esmolol are all commonly used IV medications for treating hypertension. Amlodipine is still a useful medication for high blood pressure, but it is not commonly used in IV form.
