Chapter 1. Introduction: The Nature of Drugs & Drug Development & Regulation
u u u u u u u u u u u
1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is
u u u u u u u u u u u
having a computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the
u u u u u u u u u u u
oncology unit administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At
u u u u u u u u u u
the Public Health Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-
u u u u u u u u u
rubella (MMR) vaccine toa 14-month-old zchildzaszazroutine immunization.

Which branch of pharmacology zbest zdescribes zthe zactions zof zall zthree
u u u u u
nurses?
u
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
Ans: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology zis zthe zstudy zof zthe zbiologic zeffects zofzchemicals. Nurses are
u u u u u u u
involved zwith zclinical zpharmacology zor zpharmacotherapeutics, which is a
u u u u u u
zbranch zof zpharmacology zthat zdeals zwith zthe zuses z of z drugs zto ztreat, prevent,

u u u u u u
zazdisease. zPharmacoeconomics z includes zany costs involved z in zdrug therapy.
u u u u u uu
Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body
u u u u u u u u
andpharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.

2. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a
u u u u u u u u u
narcotic, every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident
u u u u u u u u u u u u u
victim.The nurse is aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under
u u u u u u u u u u u u
whatcategorywould morphine be classified?
u u u u u
A) Schedule I u
B) Schedule II u

C) Schedule III u
D) Schedule IV u
Ans: B
Feedback:
Narcotics with a high abuse potential are classified as Schedule II drugs
u u u u u u u u u u u
because of severe dependence liability. Schedule I drugs have high
u u u u u u u u u u
abusepotential and no accepted medical use. Schedule III drugs have a
u u u u u u u u u u u u
lesser abuse potential than II and an accepted medical use. Schedule IV
u u u u u u u u u u u u
drugs havelow abuse potential and limited dependence liability.

C) Monitoring zand zobserving zpatients zclosely zfor zadverse effects uu
D) Conducting zresearch zto zdetermine zeffectiveness zof zthe z drug u u

u u u u

u
zAdministration z(FDA)zbutzwould z not z conduct zresearch independently
u u u u
because nurses do not prescribe medications. Use of animals in drug
u u u u u u u u u u u
testing is done in the preclinical trials. Select patients who are involved
u u u u u u u u u u u u
in phase II studies to participate in studies where the participants have
u u u u u u u u u u u
thedisease the drug is intended to treat. These patients are monitored
u u u u u u u u u u u u
closely for drug action and adverse effects. Phase I studies involve
u u u u u u u u u u u
healthy human volunteers who are usually paid for their participation.
u u u u u u u u u u
Nurses
u
may observe for adverse effects and toxicity.
u u u u u u
4. What concept is considered when generic drugs are substituted
u u u u u u u u
forbrandname drugs?
u u u
A) Bioavailability
WWW.THENURSINGMASTERY.COM
, Page 3 of 822 u u u
B) Critical concentration u
C) Distribution
D) Half-life
Ans: A
Feedback:
Bioavailability is the portion of a dose of a drug that reaches the systemic
u u u u u u u u u u u u u
circulation and is available to act on body cells. Binders used in a generic
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u
drug may not be the same as those used in the brand name drug.
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u
Therefore, the way the body breaks down and uses the drug may differ,
u u u u u u u u u u u u
u which may eliminate a generic drug substitution. Critical concentration
u u u u u u u u
u isthe amount ofa zdrug zthat zis zneeded zto zcause za ztherapeutic effect and
u u u u u u u u u
u should not zdiffer zbetween zgeneric zand zbrand zname medications.
u u u
Distribution zis zthe zphase zof zpharmacokinetics, zwhich involves the
u u u u u
umovement zof za zdrug zto zthe zbodys ztissues zand zis zthe zsame in generic and u u u u u u u
uzbrand z name zdrugs. zA zdrugs z half-life z iszt he ztime zit ztakes z for the amount of
u u u u u u u u u
uzdrug zto zdecrease zto z half z the zpeak z level, zwhich zshould znot zchange when
u u u u
zsubstituting za zgeneric z medication. u u u
5. A znurse ziszassessing zthe zpatientszhome zmedication zuse. zAfter listening to
u u u u u
zthezpatient z list zcurrent zmedications, zthe z nurse zasks zwhat zpriority question?
u u u u u
A) Do zyou ztake zany zgeneric zmedications? u
B) Are zany zof zthese zmedications zorphan z drugs? u
C) Are zthese zmedications zsafe zto ztake zduring z pregnancy? u u
D) Do zyou ztake zany zover-the-counter z medications?
u u
Ans: D
Feedback:
It is important for the nurse to specifically question use of over-the-
u u u u u u u u u u u
countermedications because patients may not consider them important.
u u u u u u u u
The patient is unlikely to know the meaning of orphan drugs unless they
u u u u u u u u u u u u u
too are health care providers. Safety during pregnancy, use of a generic
u u u u u u u u u u u u
medication, or classification of orphan drugs are things the patient
u u u u u u u u u u
would be unable to answer but could be found in reference books if the
u u u u u u u u u u u u u u
nurse wishes to researchthem.
