Edition

MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Knowledge of pharmacology aids the dental professional in
a. obtaining a patient’s health history.
UV
b. administering drugs in the office.
c. handling emergency situations.
d. selection of a nonprescription medication.
e. All of the above.
ANS: E
All of the choices are true. Because many of our patients are being treated with drugs, knowledge of
IA
pharmacology helps in understanding and interpreting patients’ responses to health history questions.
Knowledge of the therapeutic and adverse effects of medications obviously helps in their proper
administration in the office. Emergency situations may be caused by drugs or treated by drugs; thus,
knowledge of pharmacology is of great help, especially because a rapid response is sometimes
_A
required. A clear understanding of the concepts of drug action, drug handling by the body, and drug
interactions will allow the dental practitioner to make proper judgments and grasp the concepts
relevant to new drug therapies on the market.

2. Which of the following statements is true regarding planning appointments?
a. Whether or not patients are taking medication for systemic diseases is of little
consequence in the dental office.
b. Asthmatic patients should have dental appointments in the morning.
c. Diabetic patients usually have fewer problems with a morning appointment
compared with afternoon appointments.
VE
d. Both B and C are true.
ANS: D
Asthmatic patients who experience dental anxiety should schedule their appointments when they are
not rushed or under pressure early in the morning. Diabetic patients usually have relatively fewer
D?
problems with a morning appointment. Patients taking medication for systemic diseases may require
special handling in the dental office.

ANS: C
Nutritional or herbal supplements are quite capable of causing adverse effects. The majority of
nutritional or herbal supplements do not carry FDA approval for treating disease states. These
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?
IA
a. Brand name
b. Code name
c. Generic name
d. Trade name
_A
ANS: C
Before any drug is marketed, it is given a generic name that becomes the “official” name of the drug.
Each drug is assigned only one generic name selected by the U.S. Adopted Name Council, and the
name is not capitalized. The brand name is equivalent to the trade name and is capitalized. Although
the brand name is technically the name of the company marketing the product, this term is often used
PP
interchangeably with the trade name. The code name is the initial term used within a pharmaceutical
company to refer to a drug while it is undergoing investigation and is often a combination of capital
letters and numbers, the letters representing an abbreviation of the company name.

5. A drug’s generic name is selected by the
a. pharmaceutical company manufacturing it.
b. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
c. U.S. Adopted Name Council.
VE
d. Federal Patent Office.
ANS: C
Each drug is assigned only one generic name (e.g., ibuprofen). It is selected by the U.S. Adopted
Name Council. The generic name is not selected by the FDA or the Federal Patent Office. The
D?
pharmaceutical company manufacturing the drug clearly has an influence on the generic name given
its drug, but the final decision is not the company’s.
