1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is having a
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the oncology unit
c c c c c c c c c c c
administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public Health
c c c c c c c c c c c
Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine
c c c c c c c c
toa 14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch of
c c c c c c c c c c c
pharmacology best describes the actions of all three nurses?
c c c c c c c c c
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ANSWER: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are
c c c c c c c c c c c
involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a
c c c c c c c c c
branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent,
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
and diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help
c c c c c c c c c c c c
diagnose a disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
adisease. Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
c c c c c c c c c c
Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body c c c c c c c
andpharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.

2. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a
c c c c c c c c c
narcotic, every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident
c c c c c c c c c c c c c
victim.The nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under what
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c
categorywould morphine be classified?
c c c c c
A) Schedule I c
B) Schedule II c
