Pharmacology for Nurses, 20th Edition


MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which priority action should be implemented when hives are assessed on a patient started o
n a new medication?
lw


a. Notify physician of allergic reaction.
b. Notify physician of idiosyncratic reaction.
c. Notify physician of potential teratogenicity.
d. Notify the physician of potential tolerance.
ANS: A
An allergic reaction is indicative of hypersensitivity and manifests with hives and/or urticari
a, w h i c h are easily identified. An idiosyncratic reaction occurs when something unusual or
l w


abnormal happens when a drug is first administered. A teratogenic reaction refers to the oc
currence of birth defects related to administration of the drug. Tolerance refers to the body‘s
lw


requirement for increasing dosages to achieve the same effects that a lower dose once did.

2. The nurse administers an initial dose of a steroid to a patient with asthma. Thirty minutes a fter
administration, the nurse finds the patient agitated and stating that ―everyone is out to get
me.‖ Which term is used for this unusual reaction?
a. Desired action
b. Adverse effect
c. Idiosyncratic reaction
d. Allergic reaction
ANS: C
Idiosyncratic reactions are unusual, abnormal reactions that occur when a drug is first
administered. Patients typically exhibit an overresponsiveness to a medication related
to diminished metabolism. These reactions are believed to be related to genetic enzy
lw


me deficiencies. Desired actions are expected responses to a medication. Adverse effect
s are reactions that occur in another system of the body; they are usually predictable.
lw


Allergic reactions appear after repeated medication dosages.

3. Which is the best description of when drug interactions occur?
a. On administration of toxic dosages of a drug
b. On an increase in the pharmacodynamics of bound drugs
c. On the alteration of the effect of one drug by another drug
d. On increase of drug excretion
ANS: C
Drug interactions may be characterized by an increase or decrease in the effectiveness of o
ne or both of the drugs. Toxicity of one drug may or may not affect the metabolism of an
lw


other one. Drug interactions may result from either increased or decreased pharmacodyna
mics.
Drug interactions mayresult from either increased or decreased excretion.
