A patient is administered morphine. Morphine
is a prototypical drug that can be classified in
3.
different ways. Which of the following
classifications applies to morphine?
A) Central nervous system depressant
B) Central nervous system stimulant
C) Anti-inflammatory
D) Antihypertensive
Ans: A
Feedback:
Drugs are classified according to their effects
on particular body systems, their therapeutic
uses, and their chemical characteristics. For
example, morphine can be classified as a
central nervous system depressant and a
narcotic or opioid analgesic. A central nervous
system stimulant increases attention and
raises mood. An anti-inflammatory agent
decreases inflammation at the site of tissue or
joint inflammation. An antihypertensive agent
reduces blood pressure.
