1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is having a
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the oncology unit
n n n n n n n n n n n
administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public Health
n n n n n n n n n n n
Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine toa
n n n n n n n n n n
14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch of pharmacology
n n n n n n n n n n
best describes the actions of all three nurses?
n n n n n n n n
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
ANSWER: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are n n n n n n n n n n n
involved with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a
n n n n n n n n n
branch of pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
diagnose disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help diagnose a
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
disease. The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat adisease.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
n n n n n n n n
Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body and n n n n n n n n
pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.

2. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a narcotic,
n n n n n n n n n n
every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident victim.The nurse is
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under what categorywould
n n n n n n n n n n n n
morphine be classified?
n n n
A) Schedule I n
B) Schedule II n
