Alright, time to channel my inner pharmacologist. D) Pindolol, the beta-blocker with an identity crisis. I'm confident that's the answer.

So, the correct answer is D) Pindolol then. It doesn't belong in that group.

Yeah, Pindolol is a beta-blocker, not a 2-agonist.

I think it's D) Pindolol too, it's not a bronchodilator.

I bet the person who came up with D) Pindolol was just trying to be funny and trip us up. Nice try, but I'm going with D!

D) Pindolol, the beta-blocker moonlighting as a bronchodilator. Impressive, but not the right answer.

Hmm, D) Pindolol seems like the odd one out here. As a beta-blocker, it wouldn't be used as a bronchodilator.

E) Levalbuterol? Isn't that just the active isomer of albuterol? I think the answer is D.

Yes, you are correct. Levalbuterol is indeed the active isomer of albuterol.
