Rationale .2: .Pharmacologists .did .begin .to .synthesize .drugs .in .the .laboratory .in .the .20th .century.
Rationale .3: .Modern .pharmacology .began .in .the .1800s, .not .1600s.

Question .2
.Type: .MCSA
Although .all .areas .of .medicine, .including .pharmacology, .have .made .great .advances .in .the .last .century, .the .early
.roots .of .pharmacology .still .apply .for .the .nurse .and .other .health .professionals. .What .were .the .early .roots .of
.pharmacology?
1. Applying .products .to .relieve .human .suffering
2. Creating .new .drugs .as .quickly .as .possible
,3. Finding .medicinal .alternatives .to .plants
4. Understanding .how .drugs .take .their .effects
Correct .Answer: .1

.body; .it .is .not .any .substance .that .is .synthesized .and .tested .in .the .laboratory .setting, .nor .is .it .only .a .substance
.isolated .from .natural .substances.
Question .4
.Type: .MCSA
Pharmacotherapy .is .a .critical .intervention .for .many .conditions, .and .a .key .part .of .nursing .intervention. .Which
.statement .best .describes .pharmacotherapy?
, 1. The .study .of .medicine .and .drug .therapy
2. The .application .of .natural .substances .to .cure .diseases

4. Understanding .the .difference .between .trade .and .generic .medications
Correct .Answer: .3
Rationale .1: .Pharmacotherapy .is .not .just .the .study .of .medicine .and .drug .therapy.

Rationale .3: .Pharmacotherapy .is .the .application .of .drugs .for .the .prevention .and .treatment .of .diseases .and .human
.suffering.
Rationale .4: .Pharmacotherapy .comprises .more .than .understanding .the .difference .between .trade .and .generic
.drugs.

Rationale .2: .The .nurse .should .understand .much .more .about .a .drug .than .just .the .common .side .effects .of .the
.drug’s .prototype.
Rationale .3: .The .nurse .should .understand .much .more .about .a .drug .than .just .its .trade .and .generic .names.
