community health agencies
CBER - answerThe center for biological evaluation and research (CBER) ensures the
safety and efficacy o f blood products , vaccines, allergenics, biological therapeutics,
somatic cell therapy, gene therapy, and banked human tissue.
The center for food safety and applied Nutrition (CFSAN) established the CFSAN
adverse events reporting systems ( CAERS) in 2002 to identify potentially serious
problems secondary to the non-FDA approved herbs, minerals, vitamins, dietary
supplements, and other substances.

86. Which of the following information is/are TRUE ABOUT Essential Fatty Acids?
[Select ALL That Apply]
a. Linoleic and alpha-linolenic are essential fatty acids.
, b. Arachidonic acid is classified as 'conditionally essential' fatty acid.
c. Ideally, in the diet, the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids should be between 1:1
and 4:1.
d. Excessive intake of omega-6 fatty acids can cause the deficiency of omega-3 fatty
acids. - answerALL
Answer (a, b, c and d). Essential fatty acids, or EFAs, are fatty acids that humans and
other animals must ingest because the body requires them for good health but cannot
synthesize them.
Only two fatty acids are known to be essential for humans: alpha-linolenic acid (an
omega-3 fatty acid) and linoleic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid). Some other fatty acids are
sometimes classified as "conditionally essential," meaning that they can become
essential under some developmental or disease conditions; examples include
docosahexaenoic acid and gamma-linolenic acid.
It is not only important to incorporate good sources of omega-3 and omega-6s in a diet,
but also consume these fatty acids in the proper ratio. Omega-6 fatty acids compete
with omega-3 fatty acids for use in the body, and therefore excessive intake of omega-6
fatty acids can inhibit the use of omega-3 fatty acids by the body. Ideally, the ratio of
omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids should be between 1:1 and 4:1. Instead, most
Americans consume these fatty acids at a ratio of omega-6: omega-3 between 10:1 and
25:1, and are consequently unable to reap the benefits of omega-3s. This imbalance is
due to a reliance on processed foods and oils, which are now common in the Western
diet. To combat this issue it is necessary to eat a low-fat diet with minimal processed
foods and with naturally occurring omega-3 fatty acids. A lower omega-6: omega-3 ratio
is desirable for reducing the risk of many chronic diseases.
Arachidonic acid is not one of the essential fatty acids. However, it does become
essential if there is a deficiency in linoleic acid or if there is an inability to convert linoleic
acid to arachidonic acid.
82. NABP reports a recent rise in forged prescriptions for Promethazine with Codeine.
Promethazine with codeine, a Schedule V CS, has been used for years as a cough
medication. Abusers commonly refer to it as:
a. Elixir of Heaven
b. Purple Drank
c. Orange Cocktail
d. Levoni's Drink - answerAnswer: Purple Drank.
"Purple drank" is a combination of promethazine with codeine mixed with a carbonated
soda, such as Sprite or Mountain Dew, and candy, such as crushed Jolly Ranchers,
mixed in for additional flavor.
