MULTIPLE jjvCHOICE

1. The jjvnurse jjvis jjvteaching jjva jjvpatient jjvhow jjva jjvmedication jjvworks jjvto jjvtreat jjvan jjvillness.
jjvTo jjvdo jjvthis, jjvthe jjvnurse jjvwill jjvrely jjvon jjvknowledge jjvof:
a. clinical jjvpharmacology.
b. drug jjvefficacy.
c. pharmacokinetics.
d. pharmacotherapeutics.
ANS: j j v D
Pharmacotherapeutics jjvis jjvthe jjvstudy jjvof jjvthe jjvuse jjvof jjvdrugs jjvto jjvdiagnose, jjvtreat, jjvand
jjvprevent jjvconditions. jjvClinical jjvpharmacology jjvis jjvconcerned jjvwith jjvall jjvaspects jjvof jjvdrug–
human jjvinteractions. jjvDrug jjvefficacy jjvmeasures jjvthe jjvextent jjvto jjvwhich jjva jjvgiven jjvdrug
