2.
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration
3.
The State Board of Nursing for each state
4.
The State Board of Pharmacy - CORRECT ANSWERS-3
2. The benefits to the patient of having an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN)
prescriber include:
1.
Nurses know more about pharmacology than other prescribers because they take it
both in their basic nursing program and in their APRN program.
2.
Nurses care for the patient from a holistic approach and include the patient in decision
making regarding their care.
3.
APRNs are less likely to prescribe narcotics and other controlled substances.
,4.
APRNs are able to prescribe independently in all states, whereas a physician's assistant
needs to have a physician supervising their practice. - CORRECT ANSWERS-2
3. Clinical judgment in prescribing includes:
1.
Factoring in the cost to the patient of the medication prescribed
2.
Always prescribing the newest medication available for the disease process
3.
Handing out drug samples to poor patients
4.
Prescribing all generic medications to cut costs - CORRECT ANSWERS-1
4. Process for choosing an effective drug for a disorder include:
1.
Asking the patient what drug they think would work best for them
2.
Consulting nationally recognized guidelines for disease management
3.
Prescribing medications that are available as samples before writing a prescription
4.
Following U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration guidelines for prescribing - CORRECT
ANSWERS-2
5. Nonintentional nonadherence of drug therapy may occur due to:
1.
Belief that medication does not work
2.
Adverse drug reactions
3.
Chronic conditions that require daily therapy
4.
Forgetfulness or distraction - CORRECT ANSWERS-4
1. A patient's nutritional intake and laboratory results reflect hypoalbuminemia. This is
critical to prescribing because:
1.
Distribution of drugs to target tissue may be affected.
2.
The solubility of the drug will not match the site of absorption.
3.
There will be less free drug available to generate an effect.
4.
Drugs bound to albumin are readily excreted by the kidneys. - CORRECT ANSWERS-1
,2. Drugs that have a significant first-pass effect:
1.
Must be given by the enteral (oral) route only
2.
Bypass the hepatic circulation
3.
Are rapidly metabolized by the liver and may have little, if any, desired action
4.
Are converted by the liver to more active and fat-soluble forms - CORRECT
ANSWERS-3
3. The route of excretion of a volatile drug will likely be the:
1.
Kidneys
2.
Lungs
3.
Bile and feces
4.
Skin - CORRECT ANSWERS-2
4. Medroxyprogesterone (Depo-Provera) is prescribed intramuscularly (IM) to create a
storage reservoir of the drug. Storage reservoirs:
1.
Assure that the drug will reach its intended target tissue
2.
Are the reason for giving loading doses
3.
Increase the length of time a drug is available and active
4.
Are most common in collagen tissues - CORRECT ANSWERS-3
5. The nurse practitioner (NP) chooses to give cephalexin every 8 hours based on
knowledge of the drug's:
1.
Propensity to go to the target receptor
2.
Biological half-life
3.
Pharmacodynamics
4.
Safety and side effects - CORRECT ANSWERS-2
6. Azithromycin dosing requires that the first day's dosage is twice that of the other 4
days of the prescription. This is considered a loading dose. A loading dose:
1.
, Rapidly achieves drug levels in the therapeutic range
2.
Requires four to five half-lives to attain
3.
Is influenced by renal function
4.
Is directly related to the drug circulating to the target tissues - CORRECT ANSWERS-1
7. The point in time on the drug concentration curve that indicates the first sign of a
therapeutic effect is the:
1.
Minimum adverse effect level
2.
Peak of action
3.
Onset of action
4.
Therapeutic range - CORRECT ANSWERS-3
8. Phenytoin requires that a trough level be drawn. Peak and trough levels are done:
1.
When the drug has a wide therapeutic range
2.
When the drug will be administered for a short time only
3.
When there is a high correlation between the dose and saturation of receptor sites
4.
To determine if a drug is in the therapeutic range - CORRECT ANSWERS-4
9. A laboratory result indicates that the peak level for a drug is above the minimum toxic
concentration. This means that the:
1.
Concentration will produce therapeutic effects
2.
Concentration will produce an adverse response
3.
Time between doses must be shortened
4.
Duration of action of the drug is too long - CORRECT ANSWERS-2
10. Drugs that are receptor agonists may demonstrate what property?
1.
Irreversible binding to the drug receptor site
2.
Up-regulation with chronic use
3.
