I didn’t live there, but I did live with Dodson, who at one point were not letting my roommate and I move out because our lease rolled over to month to month and they were refusing to answer our calls and the manager hid in her office and pretended not to be there when we went in person.

They also threatened to sue us whenever we refused to pay rent they mistakenly doubled.

They also guaranteed us free parking until the city gave us hundreds of dollars in tickets and they tried to pretend they never offered parking until we dug up emails and threatened to take them to court.

Fuck Dodson. Fight the good fight folks.

In addition to all the great answers here I wanted it mention some medications that can affect absorption from the GI tract.

As all the other comments mentioned, beta blockers and other agents that decrease heart rate and blood pressure do not affect absorption from the GI tract. However, there are some agents with the opposite effect that do.

Many agents we refer to as vasopressors can have this affect, some common ones would be norepinephrine, epinephrine, and phenylephrine. These agents act on act on alpha-1 receptors as well as others. Their action causes peripheral vasoconstriction, which increases and maintains blood pressure, often in critically ill patients. This action maintains adequate perfusion of the heart and brain, but can cause less blood flow to other areas due to vasoconstriction. This can include the GI tract, which may cause decreased absorption of medications and nutrients from the GI tract.

This is a very simplified explanation, but it’s the first thing to came to mind.
