Bowel and renal tubules The nurse is aware that excessive drug dosage, impaired metabolism, or inadequate excretion may result in which drug effect? A. Tolerance B. Cumulative effect C. Incompatibility D. Antagonistic effectCorrect Answers B. Cumulative effect Drug half-life is defined as the amount of time required for 50% of a drug to: A. be absorbed by the body B. reach a therapeutic level C. exert a response D. be removed by the bodyCorrect Answers D. be removed by the body The nurse recognizes that drugs given by which route will be altered by the first-pass effect? (Select all that apply.) A. Oral B. Sublingual C. Subcutaneous D. Intravenous E. RectalCorrect Answers A. Oral E. Rectal If a drug binds with an enzyme and thereby prevents the enzyme from binding to its normal target cell, it will produce which effect? A. Receptor interaction B. Enzyme affinity C. Enzyme interaction D. Nonspecific interactionCorrect Answers C. Enzyme interaction The nurse is revieweing a list of a patient's medications, and notes that one of the drugs is known to have a low therapeutic index. Which statement accurately explains this concept? A. the difference between a therapeutic dose and toxic dose is large B. The difference between a therapeutic dose and toxic dose is small C. The dose needed to reach a therapeutic level is small D. The drug has only a slight chance of being effectiveCorrect Answers B. The difference between a therapeutic dose and toxic dose is small The nurse prepares to obtain a patient's blood sample from a central line for a drug level that is to drawn JUST BEFORE THAT MEDICATION'S NEXT DOSE. What is the timing of this blood draw known as? A. Half-life B. Therapeutic level C. Peak level D. Trough levelCorrect Answers D. Trough level (Lowest level) What is Pharmaceutics?Correct Answers The science of preparing and dispensing drugs, including dosage form design. What is Pharmacodynamics?Correct Answers The study of the biochemical and physiologic interactions of drugs at their sites of activity. It examintes the physicochemical properties of drugs and their pharmacologic interactions with body receptors. What is Pharmacoeconomics?Correct Answers The study of economic factors impacting the cost of drug therapy. What is Pharmacogenomics?Correct Answers The study of the influence of genetic factors on drug response, including the nature of genetic aberrations that result in the absence, overabundance, or insufficiency of drug-metabolizing enzymes (also called pharmacogenomics) What is Pharmacognosy?Correct Answers the study of drugs that are obtained from natural plant and animal sources. What is Pharmacokinetics?Correct Answers The study of what happens to a drug from the time it is put into the body until the parent drug and all metabolites have left the body. Pharmacokinetics represent the drug absorption into, distribution and metabolism within, and excretion from the body. What is Pharmacotherapeutics?Correct Answers The treatment of pathologic conditions through the use of drugs. Which physiologic factor is most responsible for the differences in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behavior of drug in neonates and adults? A. Infant's stature B. Infant's smaller weight C. Immaturity of neonatal organs D. Adult's longer exposure to toxinsCorrect Answers C. Immaturity of neonatal organs
