Students can discuss drug-drug interactions and medication efficacy - ✔✔Drugs can
interact through four mechanisms, direct chemical or physical interaction,
pharmacokinetic interaction, pharmacodynamic, and combined toxicity.
Students can differentiate between agonist and antagonist medication reactions -
✔✔An agonist medication is one that stimulates a certain type of receptor to
produce a therapeutic response. Ie albuterol acts by stimulating beta2-adrenergic
receptors to cause bronchodilation
Antagonist- binds to the receptor to block the receptor from producing a response
Students can describe how they will evaluate medication administration by the half-life
of a drug - ✔✔the time required for the amount of drug in the body to decrease by
50%
Students can discuss the meaning of therapeutic range of medications - ✔✔A drug
with a narrow therapeutic range is more difficult to administer safely, because the
difference between the minimum effective concentration and the toxic concentration is
small. Clients taking these medications must have their plasma drug levels monitored
closely to ensure that they are getting an effective dose that is not toxic
Students can prioritize clients to monitor for adverse drug reactions - ✔✔Monitor
patients more closely when the drug has a narrow therapeutic range
