Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical population in which
patients are asked to record any symptoms they experience while taking the
drugs. Nurses may be responsible for helping collect and analyze the information
to be shared with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but would not
conduct research independently because nurses do not prescribe medications. Use
of animals in drug testing is done in the preclinical trials. Select patients who are
involved in phase II studies to participate in studies where the participants have
the disease the drug is intended to treat. These patients are monitored closely for
drug action and adverse effects. Phase I studies involve healthy human volunteers
who are usually paid for their participation. Nurses may observe for adverse
effects and toxicity.
What concept is considered when generic drugs are substituted for brand name
