drug?
a. Manufacturer’s section
b. Brand and Generic Name section
c. Product Category section
d. Product Information section
ANS: B
A physician’s order would include the brand and/or generic name of the drug. The

physician’s order, manufacturer’s information and classification information would not be
known. The Manufacturer’s section is a roster of manufacturers. The Product Category

ANS: A
The Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 authorized the FDA to determine the
safety of all drugs before marketing. Later amendments and acts helped tighten FDA control
and ensure drug safety. The Durham Humphrey Amendment defines the kinds of drugs that
cannot be used safely without medical supervision and restricts their sale to prescription by
a licensed practitioner. The Controlled Substances Act addresses only controlled substances
and their categorization. The Kefauver Harris Drug Amendment ensures drug efficacy and
greater drug safety. Drug manufacturers are required to prove to the FDA the effectiveness
of their products before marketing them.

8. What would the FDA do to expedite drug development and approval for an
outbreak of smallpox, for which there is no known treatment? a. List
smallpox as a health orphan disease.
b. Omit the preclinical research phase.
c. Extend the clinical research phase.
d. Fast track the investigational drug.
ANS: D
Once the Investigational New Drug Application has been approved, the drug can receive
highest priority within the agency, which is called fast tracking. A smallpox outbreak would
become a priority concern in the world. Orphan diseases are not researched in a priority
manner. Preclinical research is not omitted. Extending any phase of the research would
mean a longer time to develop a vaccine. The FDA must ensure that all phases of the
preclinical and clinical research phase have been completed in a safe manner.
