question 10 (2.5 points) william has just been diagnosed with a male reproductive disorder called benign prostatic hypertrophy. what class of drug is used as an option for treating this disorder? a) cholinergics b) antiandrogens c) alpha - blockers d) pde inhibitors

Explanation:

Alpha - blockers are commonly used to treat benign prostatic hypertrophy. They work by relaxing the smooth muscle in the prostate and bladder neck, which helps to improve urine flow. Cholinergics are not used for this purpose as they mainly affect the parasympathetic nervous system. Anti - androgens can be used in some cases but are not the first - line option. PDE inhibitors are mainly used for erectile dysfunction and not for treating BPH primarily.

Answer:

c) Alpha - blockers
