1. What is the margin of safety?

The answer is "C. The difference between the therapeutic dose and the toxic dose".


Margin of safety is a guideline of putting resources into which an investor just buys securities when their market cost is essentially underneath their inborn esteem. At the end of the day, when the market cost of a security is essentially beneath your estimation of its inherent esteem, the thing that matters is the edge of safety. Since speculators may set an edge of safety as per their own hazard inclinations, purchasing securities when this distinction is available enables a venture to be made with negligible drawback chance.


2. Which solution is most commonly used for reconstitution of drugs for injections?

The answer is "A. Sterile water".


Sterile water is portrayed as water that is free of every single smaller scale creature (like growths, spores, microorganisms and so on. Sterile water likewise assumes an imperative job in restorative research. Sterile water (SW) for infusion vials are monetarily accessible in sizes extending from 5 mL to 100 mL. Sterile water for infusion vials are essentially used to reconstitute meds accessible as lyophilized powders.


3. Which of the following health care professionals would most likely work and prescribe medications primarily in the hospital setting?  

The answer is "B. Hospitalists".


A hospitalist is a doctor who spends significant time in the consideration of patients in the clinic. They have finished restorative school and a residency, for the most part in interior prescription.  

Your hospitalist will work with you and your family to actually answer and talk about any inquiries you may have about your ailment, prescriptions or other analytic and treatment forms amid your hospitalization.

4. What is the phrase that refers to all of the names by which a drug can be identified?  

The answer is "C. Generic name".


The term"generic name" has a few implications as respects drugs:  

The chemical name of a medication.  

A term alluding to the synthetic makeup of a medication instead of to the promoted brand name under which the medication is sold.  

A term alluding to any medication showcased under its concoction name without publicizing.

5. Which one of the following statements accurately represents the Celsius scale?  

The answer is "B. The freezing point of water is 0 °".

The freezing point or melting point of water is the temperature at which water changes stage from a fluid to a solid or the other way around.  

The freezing point portrays the liquid to solid change while the dissolving point is the temperature at which water goes from a strong (ice) to liquid water.  

Ordinarily, the freezing point of water and melting point is 0 °C or 32 °F. The temperature might be lower if supercooling happens or if there are polluting influences present in the water which could cause the point of solidification despondency to happen.

6. What is the process of metabolism in pharmacokinetics?  

The answer is "D. The fat solubility and the protein-binding ability of a drug ".


It is the procedure of change of a medication inside the body to make it more hydrophilic with the goal that it very well may be discharged out from the body by the kidneys. This should be done since medications and synthetic compounds are remote substances in our body. In the event that the medication keeps on being in the lipohilic state and will be sifted by the glomerulus then it will be reabsorbed and stay in the body for delayed periods. Thus digestion manages making the medication more hydrophilic to such an extent that it very well may be discharged out from the body.


7. Which of the following affect(s) the distribution of a drug?  

The answer is "A. The functioning of the liver and kidneys".


The liver and the kidneys, are in charge of expansive varieties in medication pharmacokinetics. Perfusion of the retention locales impacts absorption, variety of body perfusion may adjust the drug distribution to specific organs, and perfusion of the liver and kidneys influence the digestion and discharge of the medication.
