What is the difference between prescriptive writing between schedule 2 drugs
and the others prescriptions?
1. The NPI number and signature must be present on the script.
2. The nurse must also sign the prescription with a schedule 2 drug.
3. The DEA number and signature of the prescriber must be on the script.
4. The agent of the prescriber must sign the script
,3. The DEA number and signature of the prescriber must be on the script.
For controlled substances in Schedule Two, the DEA number of the prescriber has to be
on the prescription and the prescriber must sign the prescription. For all other
prescriptions, an agent of the prescriber may sign the prescription
This is the Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion of drugs.
(What the body does to the drug)

2. Pharmacokinetics
3. Therapeutics
2. Pharmacokinetics
This is the Study and measurement of responses of the body to drugs.
(What the drug does to the body)

Most drugs have molecular targets, what are the two examples of drugs that do
not?
1. Opioids and NSAIDS
2. Antacids in the stomach and Volatile general anesthetics
3. OTC cold medications and inhaled Corticosteroids
4.Some Blood Pressure Medications and Laxatives
2. Antacids in the stomach and Volatile general anesthetics
The drug Valacyclovir is absorbed in the body by which mechanism of transport?
1. Passive
2. Active
3. Facilitated
2. Active Transport
The drug valacyclovir, an antiviral, has an amino acid attached to acyclovir. This allows
for active transport of the drug from the GI tract through amino acid receptors and thus
more acyclovir gets to the site of action in the body.
Which is the most common method of absorption into the body by the oral route?
1. Facilitated Transport
2. Active Transport
3. Passive Diffusion
3. Passive Diffusion
T/F: In the blood brain barrier, capillaries have tight junctions that limit the entry
of lipid soluble substances.
, False
Capillaries have tight junctions that limit the entry of WATER soluble substances.
Which enzymes are ) are responsible for drug metabolism in the liver?
The P450 (CYP) ezymes
Alcohol consumption and smoking are liver enzyme inducers or inhibitors?
inducers:
This can metabolize the drug more quickly resulting in a less therapeutic outcome
Grapefruit juice is a liver enzyme inhibitor and people currently taking which
drugs should avoid drinking this.
People taking statins, "ine's", verapamil, 17 B estradiol, and dihydropyridine calcium
channel blockers should avoid grapefruit juice because it may metabolize the drug
slower which may lead to toxicity of the drug.
what do all of these drugs have in common?
azithromycin
captopril
erythromycin
fluoroquinolones (e.g., ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin)
griseofulvin
isoniazid
oral penicillins
sucralfate
tetracycline
theophylline, timed release (e.g., Theo-Dur Sprinkle, Theo-24, Uniphyl)
zidovudine
They are all to be taken on an empty stomach
Warfarin interracts negatively with foods containing:
1. Vitamin K
2. High acidity
3. Tyramine
4. Protein
1. Vitamin K
"Warfarin reacts with foods containing vitamin K.
MAO inhibitors can react with foods containing tyramine and the herb bitter orange
T/F: Acacia may impair the absorption of amoxicillin
True
T/F: Kava, lavender, and valerian may decrease the effects of antibiotics
False:
Kava, lavender, and valerian may potentiate effects of CNS depressants such as
barbiturates and narcotics.
Kava may interfere with effects of dopamine or dopamine antagonists and is potentially
hepatotoxic.
Which Vitamin deficiency is commonly seen after undergoing stomach surgery?
