events in the history of pharmacology?

Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices and no incorrect choices are selected.

Standard Text: Select all that apply.

1. Initial drugs included morphine, cocaine, and penicillin.

2. Early researchers used themselves as test subjects.

4. Modern pharmacology began in the early 1600s.

5. Pharmacologists synthesized drugs in the laboratory in the twentieth century.

CORRECT ANS:2,3,5

EXPLANATION 1: Initial drugs isolated from complex mixtures included morphine,
colchicines, curare, and cocaine, but not penicillin.

EXPLANATION 2: Some early researchers, such as Friedrich Serturner, used

themselves as test subjects.

EXPLANATION 3: The early roots of pharmacology included the application of products to

Question 2
Type:
MCSA

The learner RN asks the nursing instructor why he needs to take anatomy and physiology, as well
as microbiology, when he only wants to learn about pharmacology. What is the best response by
the instructor?

1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects."

2. "You must learn all, since those subjects, as well as pharmacology, are part of the
curriculum."

3. "Knowledge of all those subjects will prepare you to provide the best patient care, including
the administration of medications."

4. "Because an understanding of those subjects is essential to understanding pharmacology."

CORRECT ANS:4

EXPLANATION 1: Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology,
but this is not the most complete reason for the RN to learn them.

, EXPLANATION 2: The RN must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to understand
pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum.

EXPLANATION 3: Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the
RN to understand pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of
medications.

EXPLANATION 4: It is essential for the RN to have a broad knowledge base of many
sciences in order to learn pharmacology.

Global EXPLANATION: It is essential for the RN to have a broad knowledge base of many
sciences in order to learn pharmacology. The RN must learn anatomy, physiology, and
microbiology to understand pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum.
Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is not the
