with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a branch of
y y y y y y y y y y


pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose
y y y y y y y y y y y y y


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


oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat a disease. Pharmacoeconomics
y y y y y y y y y y y y


includes any costs involved in drug therapy. Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug
y y y y y y y y y y y y


affects the body and pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.

because of severe dependence liability. Schedule I drugs have high abuse

potential and no accepted medical use. Schedule III drugs have a lesser
y y y y y y y y y y y y

Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical population in

the information to be shared with the Food and Drug Administration
y y y y y y y y y y y


(FDA) butwould not conduct research independently because nurses do
y y y y y y y y y y


not prescribe medications. Use of animals in drug testing is done in the
y y y y y y y y y y y y y


preclinical trials. Select patients who are involved in phase II studies to
y y y y y y y y y y y y


participate in studies where the participants have the disease the drug is
y y y y y y y y y y y y


intended to treat. These patients are monitored closely for drug action and
y y y y y y y y y y y y


adverse effects. Phase I studies involve healthy human volunteers who are
