The site within a cell that the drug binds to in order to exert its therapeutic effect is known as:
, NURS 251/225 Pharmacology and Therapeutic Modalities
• Binding site
• Receptor
• Cell wall
• Agonist
QUIZ 4
When a drug binds to a cell exerting its effect leading to a decrease in that cell’s physiologic response
that drug is acting as an agonist.
• True
• False
False. An agonist would cause in increase in that cell’s physiologic response. When the drug decreases
a cell’s physiologic response it is called an antagonist.
