FDA control and ensure drug safety. The Durham Humphrey Amendment defines the

their sale to prescription by a licensed practitioner. The Controlled Substances Act
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


addresses only controlled substances andtheir categorization. The Kefauver Harris Drug
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


Amendment ensures drug efficacy and greaterdrug safety. Drug manufacturers are
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


required to prove to the FDA the effectiveness of their products before marketing

7. Which classification does meperidine (Demerol) fall under?
nm nm nm nm nm nm


a. I
b. II
c. III
d. IV
ANS: B nm


Meperidine (Demerol) is a Schedule II drug; it has a high potential for abuse and
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


may lead to severe psychological and physical dependence. Schedule I drugs have
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


high potential for abuseand no recognized medical use. Schedule III drugs have some
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


potential for abuse. Use may lead to low to moderate physical dependence or high
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


psychological dependence. Schedule IVdrugs have low potential for abuse. Use may
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


lead to limited physical or psychological dependence.

8. Which action would the FDA take to expedite drug development and approval for an
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


outbreakof smallpox?
nm nm nm


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


b. Omit the preclinical research phase.
nm nm nm nm


c. Extend the clinical research phase. nm nm nm nm


d. Fast track the investigational drug.
nm nm nm nm




ANS: D nm


Once the Investigational New Drug Application has been approved, the drug can
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


receive highest priority within the agency, which is called fast tracking. A smallpox
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


outbreak would become a priority concern in the world. Orphan diseases are not
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


researched in a priority manner. Preclinical research is not omitted. Extending any
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


phase of the research would meana longer time to develop a vaccine. The FDA must
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


ensure that all phases of the preclinical andclinical research phase have been
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


completed in a safe manner.

b. Psychological dependency is likely. nm nm nm


c. There is a high potential for abuse.
nm nm nm nm nm nm


d. This drug is not a controlled substance.
nm nm nm nm nm nm




ANS: A nm


Lomotil, a Schedule V drug, has an abuse potential of limited physical or
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


psychological dependence liability compared with drugs in Schedule IV. Because abuse
nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm nm


potential is low witha Schedule V drug, a prescription may not be required.

Psychological dependency is not likelywith a Schedule V drug. Schedule V drugs are
