1. After teaching a group of learners about thebasics of pharmacology, the learners will be able
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



to choose which aspect as the most critical to remember?
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



A) Drug name n1




B) Drug class n1




C) Drug action n1




D) Drug source n1




ACCURATE CHOICE:-C n1




Reasoning :->> Pharmacology is the study of drugs and its action on living organisms.
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



Thus, an essential aspect of pharmacology is drug action. An understanding of the drug
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



name, drug class, and drug source is important, but the most critical aspect related to
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n 1 n1 n1 n1



pharmacology is how the drug acts in the body.

2. A nursing attendant suspects the hospital client had an adverse reaction to a
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



prescribed medication due to an interaction with an unreported over-the-counter
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



supplement. Which action by the nursing attendant will best assist in preventing
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



future similar incidents?

B) File a report with the State Board of Nursing

ACCURATE CHOICE:-A n1




Reasoning :->> Professional nurses play an important role in monitoring for adverse
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



reactions. Therefore, it is important to submit reports, even if there is uncertainty about the
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



cause–effect relationship. The FDA protects the identity of those who voluntarily report
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



adverse reactions.

3. A nursing attendant is assessing a hospital client and notes the hospital client has
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



developed swelling of the eyelids and lips after administration of a prescribed
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1

n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



indicate?
n1



A) Mild allergic reaction n1 n1




B) Anaphylactic shock n1




C) Angioedema
D) Drug idiosyncrasy n1




ACCURATE CHOICE:-C n1

n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



collection of fluid in the subcutaneous tissues, most commonly affecting the eyelids, lips,
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



mouth, and throat. Allergic reactions can be manifested by a wide range of signs and
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



symptoms such as itching, rashes, and hives. Anaphylactic shock is a serious allergic
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



reaction that requires immediate medical attention. Drug idiosyncrasy describes any
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



unusual or abnormal reaction to a drug, one that is different from the one normally
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



expected.

n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



the fourth phase of development. Which activity will the nursing attendant explain best

primary health care professionals to report adverse effects of drugs to the FDA using
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



MedWatch. Phase 1 of clinical testing involves 20 to 100 healthy volunteers. In vitro
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



testing of the drug on human or animal cells is done in the pre-FDA phase. In Phase 2 of
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



clinical testing, the drug is given to hospital clients with the disease for which the drug is
n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1 n1



manufactured.
