Chapter 1. Introduction: The Nature of Drugs & Drug Development &
Regulation
1. A nurse working in radiology administers iodine to a patient who is having a
computed tomography (CT) scan. The nurse working on the oncology unit
administers chemotherapy to patients who have cancer. At the Public Health
Department, a nurse administers a measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine toa
14-month-old child as a routine immunization. Which branch of pharmacology
best describes the actions of all three nurses?
A) Pharmacoeconomics
B) Pharmacotherapeutics
C) Pharmacodynamics
D) Pharmacokinetics
Ans: B
Feedback:
Pharmacology is the study of the biologic effects of chemicals. Nurses are involved
with clinical pharmacology or pharmacotherapeutics, which is a branch of
pharmacology that deals with the uses of drugs to treat, prevent, and diagnose
disease. The radiology nurse is administering a drug to help diagnose a disease.
The oncology nurse is administering a drug to help treat adisease.
Pharmacoeconomics includes any costs involved in drug therapy.
Pharmacodynamics involves how a drug affects the body and
pharmacokinetics is how the body acts on the body.
2. A physician has ordered intramuscular (IM) injections of morphine, a narcotic,
every 4 hours as needed for pain in a motor vehicle accident victim.The nurse is
aware this drug has a high abuse potential. Under what categorywould morphine
be classified?
A) Schedule I
B) Schedule II

C) Schedule III
D) Schedule IV
Ans: B
Feedback:
Narcotics with a high abuse potential are classified as Schedule II drugs because
of severe dependence liability. Schedule I drugs have high abuse potential and no
accepted medical use. Schedule III drugs have a lesser abuse potential than II and
an accepted medical use. Schedule IV drugs havelow abuse potential and limited
dependence liability.
3. When involved in phase III drug evaluation studies, what responsibilities
would the nurse have?
A) Working with animals who are given experimental drugs
B) Choosing appropriate patients to be involved in the drug study
C) Monitoring and observing patients closely for adverse effects
D) Conducting research to determine effectiveness of the drug
Ans: C
Feedback:
Phase III studies involve use of a drug in a vast clinical population in which
patients are asked to record any symptoms they experience while taking the
drugs. Nurses may be responsible for helping collect and analyze the
information to be shared with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but
would not conduct research independently because nurses do not prescribe
medications. Use of animals in drug testing is done in the preclinical trials.
Select patients who are involved in phase II studies to participate in studies
where the participants have the disease the drug is intended to treat. These
patients are monitored closely for drug action and adverse effects. Phase I
studies involve healthy human volunteers who are usually paid for their
participation. Nurses may observe for adverse effects and toxicity.
4. What concept is considered when generic drugs are substituted for brand
name drugs?

A) Bioavailability
B) Critical concentration
C) Distribution
D) Half-life
Ans: A
Feedback:
Bioavailability is the portion of a dose of a drug that reaches the systemic
circulation and is available to act on body cells. Binders used in a generic drug
may not be the same as those used in the brand name drug. Therefore, the way
the body breaks down and uses the drug may differ, which may eliminate a
generic drug substitution. Critical concentration is the amount ofa drug that is
needed to cause a therapeutic effect and should not differ between generic and
brand name medications. Distribution is the phase of pharmacokinetics, which
involves the movement of a drug to the bodys tissues and is the same in generic
and brand name drugs. A drugs half-life isthe time it takes for the amount of
drug to decrease to half the peak level, which should not change when
substituting a generic medication.
5. A nurse is assessing the patients home medication use. After listening to the
patient list current medications, the nurse asks what priority question?
A) Do you take any generic medications?
B) Are any of these medications orphan drugs?
C) Are these medications safe to take during pregnancy?
D) Do you take any over-the-counter medications?
Ans: D
Feedback:
It is important for the nurse to specifically question use of over-the-counter
medications because patients may not consider them important. The patient is
unlikely to know the meaning of orphan drugs unless they too are health care
providers. Safety during pregnancy, use of a generic medication, or classification
of orphan drugs are things the patient would be unable to answer but could be
found in reference books if the nurse wishes to researchthem.
