First published in 1983, Drug Interaction Facts is the most comprehensive book available on
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




drug interactions. In addition to monographs listing various aspects of drug interactions, this
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




information is reviewed and updated by an internationally renowned group of physicians and
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




pharmacists with clinical and scientific expertise.

4. The physician has written an order for a drug with which the nurse is unfamiliar. Which section
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




of the Physicians’ Desk Reference (PDR) is most helpful to get information about this drug?
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




a. Manufacturer’s section a2




b. Brand and Generic Name section a2 a2 a2 a2




c. Product Category section a2 a2




d. Product Information section a2 a2




ANS: a 2 B
A physician’s order would include the brand and/or generic name of the drug. The alphabetic
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




index in the PDR would make this section the most user friendly. Based on a physician’s order,
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




manufacturer’s information and classification information would not be known. The
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




Manufacturer’s section is a roster of manufacturers. The Product Category section lists
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




products subdivided by therapeutic classes, such as analgesics, laxatives, oxytocics, and
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




antibiotics. The Product Information section contains reprints of the package inserts for the
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




major products of manufacturers.

d. Kefauver Harris Drug Amendment (1962) a2 a2 a2 a2




ANS: a 2 A
The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 authorized the FDA to determine the safety
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




of all drugs before marketing. Later amendments and acts helped tighten FDA control and
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




ensure drug safety. The Durham Humphrey Amendment defines the kinds of drugs that cannot
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




be used safely without medical supervision and restricts their sale to prescription by a licensed
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




practitioner. The Controlled Substances Act addresses only controlled substances and their
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




categorization. The Kefauver Harris Drug Amendment ensures drug efficacy and greater drug
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




safety. Drug manufacturers are required to prove to the FDA the effectiveness of their products
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




before marketing them.

7. Meperidine (Demerol) is a narcotic with a high potential for physical and psychological
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




a2 dependency. Under which classification does this drug fall? a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




a. I
b. II
c. III
d. IV
ANS: a 2 B
Meperidine (Demerol) is a Schedule II drug; it has a high potential for abuse and may lead to
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




severe psychological and physical dependence. Schedule I drugs have high potential for abuse
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




and no recognized medical use. Schedule III drugs have some potential for abuse. Use may lead
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




to low to moderate physical dependence or high psychological dependence. Schedule IV drugs
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




have low potential for abuse. Use may lead to limited physical or psychological dependence.

8. What would the FDA do to expedite drug development and approval for an outbreak of
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




a2 smallpox, for which there is no known treatment? a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




a. List smallpox as a health orphan disease. a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




b. Omit the preclinical research phase. a2 a2 a2 a2




c. Extend the clinical research phase. a2 a2 a2 a2




d. Fast track the investigational drug. a2 a2 a2 a2




ANS: a 2 D
Once the Investigational New Drug Application has been approved, the drug can receive
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




highest priority within the agency, which is called fast tracking. A smallpox outbreak would
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




become a priority concern in the world. Orphan diseases are not researched in a priority
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




manner. Preclinical research is not omitted. Extending any phase of the research would mean a
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




longer time to develop a vaccine. The FDA must ensure that all phases of the preclinical and
a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2 a2




clinical research phase have been completed in a safe manner.
