CH 1. Introduction: The Nature of Drugs & Drug Development & Regulation


1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a hospital client who
is having a computed tomography (CT) scan. The nursing attendant
working on the oncology unit administers chemotherapy to hospital
clients who have cancer. At the Public Health Department, a nursing
attendant 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
nursing attendants?
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ACCURATE CHOICE:- B
Reasoning :->>>>>>

Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nursing
attendants 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
nursing attendant is administering a drug to help diagnose a disease. The
oncology nursing attendant 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. When involved in phase III drug evaluation studies,
whatresponsibilities would the nursing attendant
have?

A) Working with animals who are given experimental drugs
B) Choosing appropriate hospital clients to be involved in the drug study
C) Monitoring and observing hospital clients closely for adverse effects
D) Conducting research to determine effectiveness of the drug

ACCURATE CHOICE:- C
Reasoning:->>>>>>

Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical population in
whichhospital clients are asked to record any symptoms they experience
while taking the drugs. Nursing attendants may be responsible for
helping collect and analyzethe information to be shared with the Food
and Drug Administration (FDA)but would not conduct research
independently because nursing attendants donot prescribe medications.
Use of animals in drug testing is done in the preclinical trials. Select
hospital clients who are involved in phase II studies to participate in
studies where the participants have the disease the drug is intended to
treat. These hospital clients are monitored closely for drug action and
adverse effects. Phase I studies involve healthy human volunteers who
are usually paid for their participation. Nursing attendants may observe
for
adverse effects and toxicity.




3. 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 nursing attendant 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
ACCURATE CHOICE:- B
Reasoning:->>>>>>

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
havelow abuse potential and limited dependence liability.

4. What concept is considered when generic drugs are substituted for
brandname drugs?
