MULTIPLE /CHOICE /




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


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


a. clinical /pharmacology. /


b. drug /efficacy. /


c. pharmacokinetics.
d. pharmacotherapeutics.
ANS: / D /


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


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


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


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

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


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


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

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




ANS: / C /


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


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

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


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


/drug‘s /effectiveness?
/ /


a. ―I /don‘t /have /to /worry /about /toxicity, /since /it /takes /a /large /amount /of /this /drug /to
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /

, // cause /an /overdose.‖
/ /


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


c. ―I /only /have /to /take /it /every /12 /hours.‖
/ / / / / / / /


d. ―It /might /make /me /sleepy, /and /it /lessens /pain /for /several /hours /at /a /time.‖
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / /

,ANS: / D
/

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


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


/drugs /have /side /effects /and /many /react /with /other /substances; /these /do /not /affect /the /drug‘s
/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /


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