MULTIPLE CHOICE gu




1. Knowledge of pharmacology aids the dental professional in
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



a. obtaining a patient’s health history. gu gu gu gu



b. administering drugs in the office. gu gu gu gu



c. handling emergency situations. gu gu



d. selection of a nonprescription medication. gu gu gu gu



e. All of the above. gu gu gu




ANS: g u E
All of the choices are true. Because many of our patients are being treated with drugs, knowledge
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



of pharmacology helps in understanding and interpreting patients’ responses to health history
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



questions. Knowledge of the therapeutic and adverse effects of medications obviously helps in their
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



proper administration in the office. Emergency situations may be caused by drugs or treated by
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



drugs; thus, knowledge of pharmacology is of great help, especially because a rapid response is
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



sometimes required. A clear understanding of the concepts of drug action, drug handling by the
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



body, and drug interactions will allow the dental practitioner to make proper judgments and grasp
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



the concepts relevant to new drug therapies on the market.

2. Which of the following statements is true regarding planning appointments?
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



a. Whether or not patients are taking medication for systemic diseases is of
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



little gu



consequence in the dental office. gu gu gu gu



b. Asthmatic patients should have dental appointments in the morning. gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



c. Diabetic patients usually have fewer problems with a morning appointment

compared with afternoon appointments.
gu gu gu gu



d. Both B and C are true. gu gu gu gu gu




ANS: g u D
Asthmatic patients who experience dental anxiety should schedule their appointments when they are
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



not rushed or under pressure early in the morning. Diabetic patients usually have relatively fewer
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



problems with a morning appointment. Patients taking medication for systemic diseases may require

special handling in the dental office.

gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu




ANS: g u C
Nutritional or herbal supplements are quite capable of causing adverse effects. The majority of
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



nutritional or herbal supplements do not carry FDA approval for treating disease states. These
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



supplements are drugs and can cause adverse effects and interact with different drugs.

4. Which type of drug name usually begins with a lowercase letter?
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



a. Brand name gu



b. Code name gu



c. Generic name gu



d. Trade name gu




ANS: g u C
Before any drug is marketed, it is given a generic name that becomes the ―official‖ name of the
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



drug. Each drug is assigned only one generic name selected by the U.S. Adopted Name Council,
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



and the name is not capitalized. The brand name is equivalent to the trade name and is capitalized.
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



Although the brand name is technically the name of the company marketing the product, this term is
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



often used interchangeably with the trade name. The code name is the initial term used within a
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



pharmaceutical company to refer to a drug while it is undergoing investigation and is often a
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



combination of capital letters and numbers, the letters representing an abbreviation of the company
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



name.

a. pharmaceutical company manufacturing it. gu gu gu



b. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). gu gu gu gu



c. U.S. Adopted Name Council. gu gu gu



d. Federal Patent Office. gu gu




ANS: g u C
Each drug is assigned only one generic name (e.g., ibuprofen). It is selected by the U.S. Adopted
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



Name Council. The generic name is not selected by the FDA or the Federal Patent Office. The
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



pharmaceutical company manufacturing the drug clearly has an influence on the generic name given
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



its drug, but the final decision is not the company’s.

a. A drug may only have one generic name and one trade

gu name.

name. gu



d. A drug may have several generic names and several trade names.
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu




ANS: g u B
Each drug has only one generic name but may have several trade names. For each drug, there is
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



only one generic name. It is not capitalized, and it becomes the ―official‖ name of the drug. The
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



pharmaceutical company discovering the drug gives the drug a trade name. The trade name is
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



protected by the Federal Patent Law for 20 years from the earliest claimed filing date, plus patent
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



term extensions. Although the brand name is technically the name of the company marketing the

product, it is often used interchangeably with the trade name.

7. Two drugs that are found to be chemically equivalent, but not biologically equivalent

gu or therapeutically equivalent are said to differ in
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



a. potency.
b. efficacy.
c. bioavailability.
d. therapeutic index. gu




ANS: g u C
A preparation can be chemically equivalent yet not biologically or therapeutically equivalent. These
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



products are said to differ in their bioavailability. The potency of a drug is a function of the amount
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



of drug required to produce an effect. The efficacy is the maximum intensity of effect or response
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



that can be produced by a drug. The therapeutic index is the ratio of the lethal dose for 50% of the
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



experimental animals divided by the effective dose for 50% of the experimental animals. If the
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



value of the therapeutic index is small, toxicity is more likely.

gu the same compound as a generic drug?
gu gu gu gu gu gu



a. 20 years gu



b. 17 years gu



c. 7 years gu



d. 0 years gu




ANS: g u D
Once a drug patent expires, competing companies may immediately market the same compound in
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



generic form. The pharmaceutical company discovering the drug gives the drug a trade name. The
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



trade name is protected by the Federal Patent Law for 20 years from the earliest claimed filing date,
gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu



plus the patent term extensions.
