Eplerenone is indicated for the treatment of:

  1. Hypertension and post-MI heart failure

  2. Chronic kidney disease

  3. Diabetes mellitus

  4. Atherosclerosis

The correct answer is: Hypertension and post-MI heart failure

Eplerenone is a medication that is specifically used for the treatment of hypertension and post-MI heart failure. Hypertension (high blood pressure) and post-MI (post myocardial infarction or heart attack) heart failure are both serious medical conditions that can be treated with eplerenone. This medication is not indicated for the treatment of chronic kidney disease, diabetes mellitus, or atherosclerosis. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect.
