Question 1
Type: MCMA
The nurse is teaching a pharmacology class to student nurses. What does the nurse include as key
events in the history of pharmacology?
Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices and no incorrect choices are selected.
Standard Text: Select all that apply.
,1. Initial drugs included morphine, cocaine, and penicillin.
2. Early researchers used themselves as test subjects.
3. The initial intention of pharmacology was to relieve human suffering.
4. Modern pharmacology began in the early 1600s.
5. Pharmacologists synthesized drugs in the laboratory in the twentieth century.
Correct Answer: 2,3,5
Rationale 1: Initial drugs isolated from complex mixtures included morphine, colchicines,
curare, and cocaine, but not penicillin.
Rationale 2: Some early researchers, such as Friedrich Serturner, used themselves as test
subjects.
Rationale 3: The early roots of pharmacology included the application of products to relieve
human suffering.
Rationale 4: Modern pharmacology began in the early 1800s, not the 1600s.
Rationale 5: By the twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugs in the laboratory.
