Chapter 1 Introduction to Pharmacology
r r r r r
1) A nurse is reviewing key events in the history of pharmacology with a student nurse. Which
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r
student comment indicates an understanding?
r r r r r
1. "Early researchers used themselves as test subjects." r r r r r r
2. "A primary goal of pharmacology is to prevent disease."
r r r r r r r r
3. "Penicillin is one of the initial drugs isolated from a natural source." r r r r r r r r r r r
4. "Pharmacologists began synthesizing drugs in the laboratory in the nineteenth century." r r r r r r r r r r
Answer: 1
r r
Explanation:
1. Some early researchers, like Friedrich Serturner, used themselves as test subjects.
r r r r r r r r r r
2. An early goal of pharmacology was to relieve human suffering.
r r r r r r r r r
3. Initial drugs isolated from complex mixtures included morphine, colchicine, curare, and
r r r r r r r r r r
cocaine, but not penicillin.
r r r r
4. By the twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugs in the laboratory.

2) A student nurse asks a nursing instructor why anatomy and physiology as well as
r r r r r r r r r r r r r
microbiology are required courses when the student only wants to learn about
r r r r r r r r r r r r
pharmacology. What is the best response by the instructor?
r r r r r r r r r
1. "Because pharmacology is an outgrowth of those subjects." r r r r r r r
2. "You must learn all, since all of those subjects are part of the curriculum."
r r r r r r r r r r r r r
3. "Knowledge of all those subjects will prepare you to administer medication." r r r r r r r r r r
4. "An understanding of those subjects is essential to understand pharmacology."
r r r r r r r r r
Answer: 4
r r
Explanation:
1. Pharmacology is an outgrowth of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology, but this is not r r r r r r r r r r r r
the most essential reason for the nurse to learn them.
r r r r r r r r r r
2. The nurse must learn anatomy, physiology, and microbiology to understand
r r r r r r r r r
pharmacology, not because they are part of the curriculum.
r r r r r r r r r
3. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology prepares the nurse to understand r r r r r r r r r r
pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications.
r r r r r r r r r r
4. It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to
r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r
learn pharmacology. r r

r r r r r r r r r r r r r r r
relates to the manufacture of a vaccine?
