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

1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is having a
P P P P P P P P P P P P P




P computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the oncology unit
P P P P P P P P P P P




administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public Health
P P P P P P P P P P




P Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine
P P P P P P P P




to a 14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch of
P P P P P P P P P P P




pharmacology best describes the actions of all three nurses? P P P P P P P P




A) Pharmacoeconomics

B) Pharmacotherapeutics

C) Pharmacodynamics

D) Pharmacokinetics

ANSWER: B

Feedback:

Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are
P P P P P P P P P P P P




involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a
P P P P P P P P P




branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent,
P P P P P P P P P P P P P




and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help
P P P P P P P P P P P P




diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat a
P P P P P P P P P P P P P




P disease. Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
P P P P P P P P




Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body and P P P P P P P P




Ppharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body. P P P P P P P P




2. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a
P P P P P P P P P P




narcotic, every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident victim.
P P P P P P P P P P P P P




P The nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under what
P P P P P P P P P P P P P




category would morphine be classified? P P P P




A) Schedule I P




B) Schedule II P
