Acute hypertension, huh? I feel like that's just a fancy way of saying 'your blood pressure is sky-high'. Gotta be C, right?

Anaphylactic shock? Really? That's like treating a headache with a sledgehammer. I think I'll go with C on this one.

I believe phenoxybenzamine is also used in preparation for radioactive iodine therapy for thyrotoxicosis.
