BETA-ADRENERGIC BLOCKING AGENTS These medicines belong to a group of medicines known as beta-adrenergic blocking agents, beta-blocking agents, or more com monly, beta-blockers. They are used to treat high blood pressure. Propranolol and nadolol are also used to relieve angina condi tions. In addition, propranolol is useful in the treatment of certain heart conditions, in the prevention of migraine headaches, and in the treatment of certain other conditions as might be determined by your doctor. Beta-blocking agenU are available only with your doctor prescription. Caution: Diabetics This medicine may tame your blood sugar levels to fall. Also, this medicine may cover up signs of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), such as change in pulse rate or increased blood pressure. If you have any questions about this, check with your doctor. This medicine may cause some people to become dizzy, lightheaded, drowsy, or less alert than they are normally. Make sure you know how you react to this medicine before you drive, use machines, or do other Jobs that require you to be alert. If the problem con tinues or gets worse, check with your doctor. Your eyes, mouth, and throat may feel very dry while you are taking this medicine. Chewing sugarless gum may help relieve ' mouth and throat dryness.

Do not miss any doses and do not take more medicine than your doctor ordered. Ask your doctor about your personal pulse rate before and after taking beta-blocking agents. Then, while you are taking this medicine, check your pulse regularly. If it is much slower than your usual rate, check with your doctor. A pulse rate that is too slow may cause circulation problems. Take this medicine with meals or im mediately following meals, unless your doctor tells you to take it on an empty stomach. If you miss a dose of this medicine, take the missed dose as soon as possible. If the next scheduled dose is within 4 hours (S hours when using nadolol), do not take the missed dose at all and do not double the next one. In stead, go back to your regular dosing schedule. If you have any questions about this, check with your doctor. For patients taking this medicine for high blood pressure: Importance of Diet When prescribing medicine for your condition, your doctor may also prescribe a personal diet for you. Such a diet may be low in sodium (salt) andor calories to help you lose excess weight. Medicine is more effective when this diet is properly followed. Check with your doctor before going on any diet. Many patients who have high blood pressure will not notice any signs of the prob lem. In fact, many may feel normal. It is very important that you take your medians exact ly as directed and .hat you keep your doctor's appointments even if you feel well. . Remember that this medicine will not cure your high blood pressure but it does control it. Therefore, you must continue to take it as directed if you expect to keep your blood pressure down. You may have to take medicine for the rest of your life. If high blood pressure is not treated, it can cause serious problems such as heart failure, blood vessel disease, stroke, or kidney disease, PKcaatioas While Using This Medlciaw It is important that your doctor check your progress at regular visits.

You may want to carry an extra prescription in your wallet or purse in case of an emergency.

Much of the confusion surrounding the resolution developed around Section F of the resolution that stated that "the Resident Handbook be changed to delete Section 27 reference to 'The Tenant Steering Committee', and any ac tion '-. by the . Housing Authority Commissioners which might be construed as establishing the cor poration, the Durham Te nant Steering Committee, Inc., or its predecessor committee as the represen tative of public housing is rescinded." Tenants pre sent interpreted this state ment to mean that the Te nant Steering Committee was being dismantled, but commissioenrs say that that is a misinterpretation and that the resolution in no way affects the Tenant Steering Committee as the representative body of the tenants Of public housing. The new resolution also states that "after Jan., 1982, the Durham Tenant Steering Committee must assume responsibility for utilities, maintenance and spaces provided for their use." Commissioners say that this, too, was to in sure that the procedure for securing funds for peratirig is within the stipulated HUD regula tions, but it does not mean that no funds will be available for operation.
