MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which drugs will go through a pharmaceutic phase after it is administered?
x x x x x x x x x x x
a. Intramuscular cephalosporins x
b. Intravenous vasopressors x
c. Oral analgesics x
d. Subcutaneous antiglycemics x
ANS: C
x x
When drugs are administered parenterally, there is no pharmaceutic phase, which occurs when a
x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x drug becomes a solution that can cross the biologic membrane.

2. The nurse is preparing to administer an oral medication and wants to ensure a rapid drug
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x action. Which form of the medication will the nurse administer?
x x x x x x x x x
a. Capsule
b. Enteric-coated pill x
c. Liquid suspension x
d. Tablet
ANS: C
x x
Liquid drugs are already in solution, which is the form necessary for absorption in the GI tract.
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x The other forms must disintegrate into small particles and then dissolve before being
x x x x x x x x x x x x
x absorbed.

3. The nurse is teaching a patient who will be discharged home with a prescription for an enteric-
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
coated tablet. Which statement by the patient indicates understanding of the teaching?
x x x x x x x x x x x
a. I may crush the tablet and put it in applesauce to improve absorption.
x x x x x x x x x x x x
b. I should consume acidic foods to enhance absorption of this medication.
x x x x x x x x x x
c. I should expect a delay in onset of the drugs effects after taking the tablet.
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
d. I should take this medication with high-fat foods to improve its action.
x x x x x x x x x x x
x ANS: C x
Enteric-coated tablets resist disintegration in the acidic environment of the stomach and
x x x x x x x x x x x
x disintegrate when they reach the small intestine. There is usually some delay in onset of actions
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x after taking these medications. Enteric-coated tablets should not be crushed or chewed, which
x x x x x x x x x x x x
x would alter the time and location of absorption. Acidic foods will not enhance the absorption of
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x the medication. The patient should not to eat high-fat food before ingesting an enteric-coated
x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x tablet, because high-fat foods decrease the absorption rate.

4. A patient who is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus asks why insulin must be
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x given by subcutaneous injection instead of by mouth. The nurse will explain that this is because
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
a. absorption is diminished by the first-pass effects in the liver.
x x x x x x x x x
b. absorption is faster when insulin is given subcutaneously.
x x x x x x x
c. digestive enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract prevent absorption.
x x x x x x x
d. the oral form is less predictable with more adverse effects.
x x x x x x x x x
x ANS: C x
Insulin, growth hormones, and other protein-based drugs are destroyed in the small intestine by
x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x digestive enzymes and must be given parenterally. Because insulin is destroyed by digestive
x x x x x x x x x x x x
x enzymes, it would not make it to the liver for metabolism with a first-pass effect. Subcutaneous
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x tissue has fewer blood vessels, so absorption is slower in such tissue. Insulin is given
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
x subcutaneously because it is desirable to have it absorb slowly. x x x x x x x x x
