Question1.
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
C
Answer: B
Feedback: LE
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
ST
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.
BE
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
