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.

3. The initial intention of pharmacology was to relieve human suffering.

4. Modern pharmacology began in the early 1600s.

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

Correct Answer: 2,3,5

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

Rationale 2: Some early researchers, such as Friedrich Serturner, used themselves as test subjects.

Rationale 3: The early roots of pharmacology included the application of products to relieve human suffering.

Rationale 4: Modern pharmacology began in the early 1800s, not the 1600s.

Rationale 5: By the twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugs in the laboratory.

Global Rationale: The early roots of pharmacology included the application of products to relieve human
suffering, and early researchers used themselves as test subjects. Initial drugs included morphine, colchicines,
curare, and cocaine, but not penicillin. Modern pharmacology began in the early 1800s, not the 1600s. By the
twentieth century, pharmacologists could synthesize drugs in the laboratory.

Question 2
Type: MCSA

The student nurse 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 Answer: 4

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

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

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

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

Global Rationale: It is essential for the nurse to have a broad knowledge base of many sciences in order to learn
pharmacology. The nurse 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 reason for the nurse to learn them. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and microbiology
prepares the nurse to understand pharmacology, not to provide care such as administration of medications.
