MN553 Final Exam

Question 1

The Best Pharmaceuticals for Children Act:

Includes a pediatric exclusivity rule which extends the patent on drugs studied in
children
Establishes a committee that writes guidelines for pediatric prescribing
Provides funding for new drug development aimed at children
Encourages manufacturers specifically to develop pediatric formulations



Question2 point

Patient education regarding taking iron replacements includes:

Doubling the dose if they miss a dose to maintain therapeutic levels
Taking the iron with milk or crackers if it upsets their stomach
Iron is best taken on an empty stomach with juice
Antacids such as Tums may help the upset stomach caused by iron therapy



Question 3 point

The benefits to the patient of having an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) prescriber
include:

Nurses know more about Pharmacology than other prescribers because they take it
both in their basic nursing program and in their APRN program.
Nurses care for the patient from a holistic approach and include the patient in
decision making regarding

their care.

, APRNs are less likely to prescribe narcotics and other controlled substances.
APRNs are able to prescribe independently in all states, whereas a physician’s
assistant needs to have a

physician supervising their practice.



Question 4 point

Precautions that should be taken when prescribing controlled substances include:

Faxing the prescription for a Schedule II drug directly to the pharmacy
Using tamper-proof paper for all prescriptions written for controlled drugs
Keeping any pre-signed prescription pads in a locked drawer in the clinic
Using only numbers to indicate the amount of drug to be prescribed



Question 5 point

The reason that two MMR vaccines at least a month apart are recommended is:

The second dose of MMR “boosts” the immunity built from the first dose.
Two vaccines 1 month apart is the standard dosing for all live virus vaccines.
If the two MMR vaccine doses are given too close together there is a greater likelihood
of severe localized reaction to the vaccine.
Only 95% of patients are fully immunized for measles after the first vaccine, with
99% having immunity after two doses of MMR.
