1) A nurse is reviewing key events in the history of pharmacology with a student nurse. Which
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
student comment indicates an understanding?
l l l l l
1. "Early researchers used themselves as test subjects." l l l l l l
2. "A primary goal of pharmacology is to prevent disease."
l l l l l l l l
3. "Penicillin is one of the initial drugs isolated from a natural source." l l l l l l l l l l l
4. "Pharmacologists begansynthesizing drugs in thelaboratory in the nineteenth century." l l l l l l l l l l
Answer: 1
l l
Explanation:
1. Some early researchers, like Friedrich Serturner, used themselves as test subjects.
l l l l l l l l l l
2. An early goal of pharmacology was to relieve human suffering.
l l l l l l l l l
3. Initial drugsisolated from complex mixtures included morphine, colchicine, curare, and
l l l l l l l l l l
cocaine, but not penicillin.
l l l l
4. By the twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugsin the laboratory.

2) A student nurse asks a nursing instructor why anatomy and physiology as well as
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
microbiology are required courses when the student only wants to learn about
l l l l l l l l l l l l
pharmacology. What is the best response by the instructor?
l l l l l l l l l
1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects." l l l l l l l
2. "You must learn all, since all of those subjects are part of the curriculum."
l l l l l l l l l l l l l
3. "Knowledge of all those subjects will prepare you to administer medication." l l l l l l l l l l
4. "An understanding ofthose subjects isessentialto understand pharmacology."
l l l l l l l l l
Answer: 4
l l
Explanation:
1. Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is not the l l l l l l l l l l l l l
most essential reason for the nurse to learn them.
l l l l l l l l l
2. The nurse must learn anatomy,physiology, andmicrobiologyto understand
l l l l l l l l l
pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum.
l l l l l l l l l
3. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to understand l l l l l l l l l l
pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications.
l l l l l l l l l l
4. It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
learn pharmacology. l l
