Of course this is absolutely incorrect! a) When the inward rectifier opens K+ does not enter cardiac myocytes. Explain why. b) When ion channels open the membrane potential DOES change. Why?arrow_forwardMrs. Jackson, who suffers from seizures, has been stable on a phenytoin dose of 300 mg q.d. (qd or QD) for over a year. However, she has recently been experiencing periods of heartburn. When you ask her more about this, you find there are no red-flag symptoms. She has tried OTC antacids in the past, but did not like them. Instead, she has seen Nexium tablets advertised and wants to know if they would be suitable. Is this an appropriate choice of OTC treatment? Explain in detail and based on scientific reasoning.arrow_forward
