Which vasodilator is known to produce significant hypotension?

  1. Minoxidil

  2. Diazoxide

  3. Hydralazine

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: All of the above

The correct answer is D, all of the above. Minoxidil, diazoxide, and hydralazine are all vasodilators, meaning they relax and widen blood vessels. This results in decreased blood pressure, also known as hypotension. All three of these options are known for their ability to significantly reduce blood pressure, making them effective vasodilators for managing conditions such as hypertension. Therefore, option D is the correct answer. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they only mention individual vasodilators, whereas the question asks for the one that is known to produce significant hypotension.
