Chapter 01: Drug Regulation, Actions, and Responses
MULTIPLE CHOICE BASIC CONCEPTS
1. Which health care professional has the major responsibility for dispensing prescribed drugs
under the direction of a pharmacist?
ANS: D
The physician and nurse practitioner have the major responsibility for prescribing drugs, not
dispensing them. The licensed nurse has the primary responsibility for administering drugs, although
under some circumstances a licensed nurse may dispense prescribed drugs but this is not his or her
major responsibility in drug therapy. The pharmacy technician has the major responsibility of
dispensing prescribed drugs under the direction of a licensed pharmacist.

The chemical name is a drug’s exact chemical composition. The generic name is the name assigned to

to the type of drug (what it does or what it is used for) and is not an actual drug name. The trade name
(brand name) is the name provided and owned by a specific drug’s manufacturer.

narcotics (opioids), insulin, cancer chemotherapy drugs, and heparin (or any drug that strongly affects
blood clotting). Penicillin, NSAIDs, and calcium are not considered high alert drugs.

term.
