ChaPter: 1. Introduction: The Nature Of Drugs & Drug DeveloPment & Regulation
1. A Nurse Working In Radiology Administers Iodine To A Patient Who Is
Having A ComPuted TomograPhy (Ct) Scan. The Nurse Working On The
Oncology Unit Administers ChemotheraPy To Patients Who Have Cancer.
At The Public Health DePartment, A Nurse Administers A Measles-MumPs-
Rubella (Mmr) Vaccine To A 14-Month-Old Child As A Routine
Immunization. Which Branch Of Pharmacology Best Describes The Actions
Of All Three Nurses?
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) PharmacotheraPeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
Answer: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology Is The Study Of The Biologic Effects Of Chemicals. Nurses
Are Involved With Clinical Pharmacology Or PharmacotheraPeutics, Which
Is A Branch Of Pharmacology That Deals With The Uses Of Drugs To
Treat, Prevent, And Diagnose Disease. The Radiology Nurse Is
Administering A Drug To HelP Diagnose A Disease. The Oncology Nurse Is
Administering A Drug To HelP Treat A Disease. Pharmacoeconomics
Includes Any Costs Involved In Drug TheraPy.
Pharmacodynamics Involves How A Drug Affects The Body And
Pharmacokinetics Is How The Body Acts On The Body.
2. A Physician Has Ordered Intramuscular (Im) Injections Of MorPhine, A
