Explanation:
1. Some early researchers, like Friedrich Serturner, used themselves as test subjects.
m m m m m m m m m m
2. An early goal of pharmacology was to relieve human suffering.
m m m m m m m m m
3. Initial drugs isolated from complex mixtures included morphine, colchicine, curare, and
m m m m m m m m m m
c ocaine, but not penicillin.

4. By the twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugs in the

as microbiology are required courses when the student only wants to learn

about p harmacology. What is the best response by the instructor?

1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects."m m m m m m m
2. "You must learn all, since all of those subjects are part of the curriculum."

m m m m m m m m m m
4. "An understanding of those subjects is essential to understand
m m m m m m m m
pharmacology." Answer: 4
m m m
Explanation:
1. Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is
m m m m m m m m m m m
not t he most essential reason for the nurse to learn them.
m m m m m m m m m m m m
2. The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to
m m m m m m m m
understand pharmacology, not because they are part of the
m m m m m m m m m
curriculum. m
3. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to
m m m m m m m m m
understand pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of
m m m m m m m m m m
medications. m
4. It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to

le arn pharmacology.
