MULTIPLE CHOICE e




1. The nurse is teaching a patient how a medication works to treat an illness. To do this,
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


the nurse will rely on knowledge of:
e e e e e e e


a. clinical pharmacology. e


b. drug efficacy. e


c. pharmacokinetics.
d. pharmacotherapeutics.

ANS: D e


Pharmacotherapeutics is the study of the use of drugs to diagnose, treat, and prevent e e e e e e e e e e e e e


conditions. Clinical pharmacology is concerned with all aspects of drug–human interactions.
e e e e e e e e e e e


Drug efficacy measures the extent to which a given drug causes an intended effect.
e e e ee e e e e e e e e e e


Pharmacokinetics is the study of the impact of the body on a drug. e e e e e e e e e e e e

2. What does it mean when a drug is described as easy to administer?
e e e e e e e e e e e e


a. It can be stored indefinitely without need for refrigeration.
e e e e e e e e


b. It does not interact significantly with other medications.
e e e e e e e


c. It enhances patient adherence to the drug regimen.
e e e e e e e


d. It is usually relatively inexpensive to produce.
e e e e e e




ANS: C e


A major benefit of drugs that are easy to administer is that patients taking them are more
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


likely to comply with the drug regimen. Drugs that are easy to give may have the other
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


attributes listed, but those properties are independent of ease of administration.

,3. A patient tells the nurse that he was told by the prescriber that the analgesic he is taking
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


is very effective. Which statement by the patient demonstrates an understanding of the
e e e e e e e e e e e e e


drug‘s effectiveness?
e e


a. ―Idon‘t have to worryabout toxicity, since it takes a large amount of this drugto
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


cause an overdose.‖
e e e


b. ―It has no side effects and doesn‘t interact with other drugs.‖
e e e e e e e e e e


c. ―I only have to take it every12 hours.‖
y e e e e e e


d. ―It might makemesleepy, and it lessens pain for several hours at a time.‖
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e

,ANS: D
e

, A drug is effective if it produces the intended effects, even if it also produces side effects.
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


Because no drug is completely safe, the level of toxicity does not determine effectiveness.
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


All drugs have side effects and many react with other substances; these do not affect the
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


drug‘s effectiveness. Ease of administration is independent of a drug‘s effectiveness.

1. What are the properties of an ideal drug? (Select all that apply.)
e e e e e e e e e e e


a. Irreversible action e


b. Predictability
c. Ease of administration e e


d. Chemical stability e


e. A simple trade name e e e




ANS: B, C, D e e e


In addition to predictability, ease of administration, and chemical stability, other properties
e e e e e e e e e e e


include a reversible action so that anyharm the drug may cause can be undone and a simple
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e


generic name, because generic names are usually complex and difficult to remember and
e e e e e e e e e e e e e


pronounce.

2. Before administering a medication, what does the nurse need to know to evaluate how
e e e e e e e e e e e e e


eindividual patient variabilitymight affect the patient‘s response to the medication? (Select
e e e e e e e e e e e


all that apply.)
e e e


a. Chemical stabilityof the medication e e e


b. Ease of administration e e


c. Family medical history e e


d. Patient‘s age e


e. Patient‘s diagnosis e




ANS: C, D, E e e e


The family medical history can indicate genetic factors that may affect a patient‘s response
e e e e e e e e e e e e e


to a medication. Patients of different ages can respond differently to medications. The
e e e e e e e e e e e e e


patient‘s illness can affect how drugs are metabolized. The chemical stabilityof the
e e e e e e e e e e e


medication and the ease of administration are properties of drugs.
