MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Knowledge of pharmacology aids the dental professional in:
a. obtaining a client’s health history.
b. administering drugs in the office.
c. handling emergency situations.
d. lifelong learning.
e. all of the above.
CORRECT ANSWER:-
>>> E
RATIONALE:Correct: All of the choices are true.
Incorrect choices: Because many of our clients are being treated with drugs, knowledge of
pharmacology helps in understanding and interpreting clients’ responses to health history
questions. Knowledge of the therapeutic and adverse effects of medications obviously helps in
their proper administration in the office. Emergency situations may be caused by drugs or
treated by drugs; thus, knowledge of pharmacology is of great help, especially because a rapid
response is sometimes required. A clear understanding of the concepts of drug action, drug
handling by the body, and drug interactions will allow the dental practitioner to make proper
judgments and grasp the concepts relevant to new drug therapies on the market.

c. Diabetic clients usually have fewer problems with a morning appointment
compared with afternoon appointments.
d. Both b and c are true.
CORRECT ANSWER:-
>>> C
RATIONALE:Correct: Diabetic clients usually have relatively fewer problems
with a morningappointment.

OBJ: 1

3. Nutritional or herbal supplements:

c. can cause adverse effects.
d. will not interact with other drugs the client may be taking.
CORRECT ANSWER:->>> C

OBJ: 1

4. Which type of drug name usually begins with a lowercase letter?
a. Brand name
b. Code name
c. Generic name
d. Trade name
CORRECT ANSWER:->>> C
RATIONALE: Correct: Before any drug is marketed, it is given a generic name that becomes
the “official” name of the drug. Each drug is assigned only one generic name selected by the
U.S. AdoptedName Council, and the name is not capitalized.
Incorrect choices: The brand name is equivalent to the trade name and is capitalized. Although
the brand name is technically the name of the company marketing the product, this term is
often used interchangeably with the trade name. The code name is the initial term used within
a pharmaceutical company to refer to a drug while it is undergoing investigation and is often a
combination of capital letters and numbers, the letters representing an abbreviation of the
company name.

REF: Drug Names | p. 5 OBJ: 3

5. A drug’s generic name is selected by the:
a. pharmaceutical company manufacturing it.
b. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
c. U.S. Adopted Name Council.
d. Federal Patent Office.
CORRECT ANSWER:->>> C
RATIONALE:Correct: Each drug is assigned only one generic name (e.g., ibuprofen). It is
selected by theUnited States Adopted Name Council.
Incorrect choices: The generic name is not selected by the FDA or the Federal Patent Office.
The pharmaceutical company manufacturing the drug clearly has an influence on the generic
name given its drug, but the final decision is not the company’s.

REF: Drug Names | p. 5 OBJ: 4

6. Which of the following is true concerning generic and trade names of drugs?
a. A drug may only have one generic name and one trade name.
b. A drug may only have one generic name, but it may have several trade names.
c. A drug may have several generic names, but it may only have one trade name.
d. A drug may have several generic names and several trade names.
CORRECT ANSWER:->>> B
Correct: Each drug has only one generic name but may have several trade names.
