True/False: Agonists possess affinity only
FALSE- Antagonists possess affinity only
True/False: The 1st pass effect applies to drugs administered orally
TRUE
True/False: The uncharged form of a weak base with a pKa=8.2 would be most abundant at a pH=1.6
FALSE- A weak base will dissociate in an acidic solution and the charged form will dominate
True/False: The charged form of a weak acid with a pKa=4.3 would be most abundant at a pH=2.8
FALSE- A weak acid will not dissociate in an acidic solution and the uncharged form will dominate
True/False: If drug A is more potent than drug B, then drug B is more efficacious than drug A
FALSE
True/False: Pareneteral administration of a drug is the most effect route of administration
FALSE
True/False: Pharmocodynamics deals with the effects of a drug on the body
TRUE
The liver plays a major role in drug excretion
TRUE
Drugs administered IV have 1000% bioavailability
TRUE
True/False: Tachycardia can result from the administration of metoprolol because it has β1 affinity
FALSE
True/False: Tachycardia can result from the administration of bethanecol because it is a direct-acting muscarinic agonist
FALSE
True/False: Tachycardia can result from the administration of neostigmine because it is a muscarinic antagonist
FALSE
True/False: Tachycardia can result from the administration of phenylephrine because it increases SVR
FALSE
True/False: A patient is administered a drug that stimulates nicotinic neuronal receptors. The drug will stimulate E secretion from the adrenal medulla
TRUE
True/False: A patient is administered a drug that stimulates nicotinic neuronal receptors. The drug will cause diarrhea by directly stimulating β2 receptors
FALSE
True/False: A patient is administered a drug that stimulates nicotinic neuronal receptors. The drug will decrease SVR by directly stimulating α1 receptors
FALSE
True/False: A patient is administered a drug that stimulates nicotinic neuronal receptors. The drug will cause spastic skeletal muscle paralysis
FALSE
True/False: Epinephrine is a positive chronotrope
TRUE
True/False: Epinephrine decreases digestive system activity due to its β2 effect
TRUE
True/False: Epinephrine is a positive inotrope
TRUE
True/False: Epinephrine is a vasoconstrictor due to its α1 effect
TRUE
True/False: Epinephrine is a vasodilator due to its β2 effect
TRUE
True/False: Epinephrine is a bronchodilator due to its β2 effect
TRUE
True/False: Atropine relaxes skeletal muscle because it is a cholinergic receptor antagonist
FALSE
True/False: Atropine is a positive chronotrope because it is an antimuscarinic drug
TRUE
True/False: Atropine decreases bronchial mucous secretion by blocking Nn receptors
FALSE
True/False: Atropine is a bronchodilator
TRUE
True/False: Labetalol causes reflex tachycardia
FALSE
True/False: Labetalol is a vasodilator
TRUE
True/False: Labetalol can cause orthostatic hypotension by blocking adrenergic receptors
TRUE
True/False: Labetalol lowers BP by reducing CO
TRUE
True/False: Metoprolol lowers BP by reducing SVR
FALSE
True/False: Metoprolol directly reduces CO
TRUE
True/False: Metoprolol targets the same receptors as dobutamine
TRUE
True/False: Metoprolol causes reflex bradycardia
FALSE
True/False: Phenylephrine causes reflex bradycardia because it reduces BP
FALSE
True/False: Phenylephrine targets a receptor targeted by NE
TRUE
True/False: Phenylephrine directly increases myocardial contractility
FALSE
True/False: Phenylephrine is an effective decongestant
TRUE
ACE Inhibitors AND/OR Cardioselective beta blockers block AII production
ACE INHIBITORS
ACE Inhibitors AND/OR Cardioselective beta blockers lower BP by reducing SVR
ACE INHIBITORS
