group of student nurses. Which key events does the
nurse include in the history of pharmacology?
Note: Credit will be given only if all correct choices
and no incorrect choices are selected.
Select all that apply.
1. Early researchers used themselves and animals as
test subjects.
2. Pharmacologists began to synthesize drugs in the
laboratory in the 20th century.
