1. Which branch of pharmacology best describes the actions of all three nurses
(radiology, oncology, public health)?
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
Answer: B – Pharmacotherapeutics
Rationale: Pharmacotherapeutics (clinical pharmacology) focuses on the use of drugs to treat,
prevent, or diagnose disease. The radiology nurse administers iodine for diagnostic purposes, the
oncology nurse administers chemotherapy for treatment, and the public health nurse administers
vaccines for prevention. Pharmacoeconomics deals with cost, pharmacodynamics explains how
drugs affect the body, and pharmacokinetics describes how the body processes drugs.
2. Morphine is classified under which drug schedule?
A) Schedule I
B) Schedule II
C) Schedule III
D) Schedule IV
Answer: B – Schedule II
Rationale: Schedule II drugs have a high potential for abuse and severe psychological or
physical dependence but have accepted medical uses. Morphine falls into this category. Schedule
I drugs have no accepted medical use, while Schedules III and IV have lower abuse potential.
3. What is the nurse’s responsibility in Phase III drug evaluation studies?
A) Working with animals
B) Selecting appropriate patients
C) Monitoring patients for adverse effects
D) Conducting independent research
Answer: C – Monitoring patients for adverse effects
Rationale: Phase III trials involve large populations using the drug in clinical settings. Nurses
monitor patients, collect data, and report adverse effects. Animal testing occurs in preclinical
trials. Patient selection typically occurs in Phase II studies.
4. What concept is considered when substituting generic drugs for brand-name
drugs?
A) Bioavailability
B) Critical concentration
C) Distribution
D) Half-life

Answer: A – Bioavailability
Rationale: Bioavailability refers to the amount of drug that reaches systemic circulation and is
available for therapeutic effect. Differences in binders and fillers may affect absorption, making
bioavailability the key concern in generic substitution.
5. What is the priority question when assessing home medication use?
A) Do you take any generic medications?
B) Are any medications orphan drugs?
C) Are these medications safe during pregnancy?
D) Do you take any over-the-counter medications?
Answer: D – Do you take any over-the-counter medications?
Rationale: Patients often do not consider OTC medications important to report. However, these
can interact with prescribed medications and cause adverse effects.
6. After completing a pharmacology course, what will the nurse know?
A) Everything needed for safe practice
B) Current therapy knowledge for 5 years
C) General drug information; consult drug guides for specifics
D) All drug actions by classification
Answer: C – General drug information; consult drug guides for specifics
Rationale: Pharmacology provides foundational knowledge, but nurses must continually consult
updated drug references due to constant changes in medications and guidelines.
7. What should the nurse explain about a Pregnancy Category B drug?
A) No fetal risk in humans
B) No fetal risk in animals; no adequate human studies
C) Animal risk shown; no human studies
D) Human fetal risk exists but benefits may outweigh risks
Answer: B – No fetal risk in animals; no adequate human studies
Rationale: Category B drugs show no fetal harm in animal studies, but adequate studies in
pregnant women are lacking. Category A indicates proven safety; Category C shows animal risk;
Category D shows evidence of human fetal risk.
8. Which statement demonstrates correct understanding of OTC drugs?
A) OTC drugs are completely safe if taken properly.
B) OTC drugs can cause adverse effects and interact with prescription medications.
C) OTC drugs do not require dosage guidelines.
D) OTC drugs are safer than prescription drugs in all cases.
