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
Ans: 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

C) Schedule III
D) Schedule IV
Ans: B
Feedback:
Narcotics with a high abuse potential are classified as
Schedule II drugs because of severe dependence liability.
Schedule I drugs have high abuse potential and no accepted
medical use. Schedule III drugs have a lesser abuse potential
than II and an accepted medical use. Schedule IV drugs have
low abuse potential and limited dependence liability.
3. When involved in phase III drug evaluation studies, what
responsibilities would the nurse have?
A) Working with animals who are given experimental drugs
B) Choosing appropriate patients to be involved in the drug study
C) Monitoring and observing patients closely for adverse effects
D) Conducting research to determine effectiveness of the drug
Ans: C
Feedback:
Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical
population in which patients are asked to record any
symptoms they experience while taking the drugs. Nurses
may be responsible for helping collect and analyze the
information to be shared with the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) but would not conduct research
independently because nurses do not prescribe medications.
Use of animals in drug testing is done in the preclinical trials.
Select patients who are involved in phase II studies to
participate in studies where the participants have the disease
the drug is intended to treat. These patients are monitored
