,Chapter 1. History Of Pharmacology
1. A NURSE Working In Radiology Administers Iodine To A Patient Who Is Having A Computed
Tomography (CT) Scan. The NURSE Working On The Oncology Unit Administers Chemotherapy To
Patients Who Have Cancer. At The Public Health Department, A NURSE Administers A Measles-Mumps-
Rubella (MMR) Vaccine To A 14-Month-Old Child As A Routine Immunization. Which Branch Of
Pharmacology Best Describes The Actions Of All Three NURSEs?
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ANS:B
FEEDBACK
Pharmacology Is The Study Of The Biologic Effects Of Chemicals. NURSEs Are Involved With Clinical
Pharmacology Or Pharmacotherapeutics, Which Is A Branch Of Pharmacology That Deals With The Uses
Of Drugs To Treat, Prevent, And Diagnose Disease. The Radiology NURSE Is Administering A Drug To Help
Diagnose A Disease. The Oncology NURSE Is Administering A Drug To Help Treat A Disease.
Pharmacoeconomics Includes Any Costs Involved In Drug Therapy. Pharmacodynamics Involves How A
Drug Affects The Body And Pharmacokinetics Is How The Body Acts On The Body.
2. A Physician Has Ordered Intramuscular (IM) Injections Of Morphine, A Narcotic, Every 4 Hours
As Needed For Pain In A Motor Vehicle Accident Victim. The NURSE Is Aware This Drug Has A High Abuse
Potential. Under What Category Would Morphine Be Classified?
A) Schedule I
B) Schedule II
C) Schedule III
D) Schedule IV
ANS: B
, FEEDBACK
Narcotics With A High Abuse Potential Are Classified As Schedule II Drugs Because Of Severe
Dependence Liability. Schedule I Drugs Have High Abuse Potential And No Accepted Medical Use.
Schedule III Drugs Have A Lesser Abuse Potential Than II And An Accepted Medical Use. Schedule IV
Drugs Have Low Abuse Potential And Limited Dependence Liability.
3. When Involved In Phase III Drug Evaluation Studies, What Responsibilities Would The NURSE
Have?
A) Working With Animals Who Are Given Experimental Drugs
B) Choosing Appropriate Patients To Be Involved In The Drug Study
C) Monitoring And Observing Patients Closely For Adverse Effects
D) Conducting Research To Determine Effectiveness Of The Drug
ANS: C
FEEDBACK
Phase III Studies Involve Use Of A Drug In A Vast Clinical Population In Which Patients Are Asked To
Record Any Symptoms They Experience While Taking The Drugs. NURSEs May Be Responsible For
Helping Collect And Analyze The Information To Be Shared With The Food And Drug Administration
(FDA) But Would Not Conduct Research Independently Because NURSEs Do Not Prescribe Medications.
Use Of Animals In Drug Testing Is Done In The Preclinical Trials. Select Patients Who Are Involved In
Phase II Studies To Participate In Studies Where The Participants Have The Disease The Drug Is Intended
To Treat. These Patients Are Monitored Closely For Drug Action And Adverse Effects. Phase I Studies
Involve Healthy Human Volunteers Who Are Usually Paid For Their Participation. NURSEs May Observe
For Adverse Effects And Toxicity.
4. What Concept Is Considered When Generic Drugs Are Substituted For Brand Name Drugs?
A) Bioavailability
B) Critical Concentration
C) Distribution
D) Half-Life
ANS: A
