    What volume in milliliters of a drug for injection 250mg/10mL should be used to fill an order for 15mg?

    • 16.6 ml

    • 10 ml

    • 6 ml

    • 0.6 ml

    Correct Answer
    A. 0.6 ml
    Explanation
    To find the volume of the drug needed, we can use a proportion. The given drug concentration is 250mg/10mL. We can set up the proportion as (250mg/10mL) = (15mg/x mL). Cross-multiplying, we get 250x = 150. Dividing both sides by 250, we find that x = 0.6 mL. Therefore, 0.6 mL of the drug should be used to fill the order for 15mg.

    A pharmacy can receive a prescription by all of the following methods except:

    • Faxed in from the doctor's office

    • Called in by the physicians designated staff

    • Called in by the patient

    • Called in by the physician

    Correct Answer
    A. Called in by the patient
    Explanation
    A pharmacy cannot receive a prescription by the patient calling it in. This is because it is important for the prescription to be verified and confirmed by the physician before it can be filled. The other methods mentioned - faxed in from the doctor's office, called in by the physician's designated staff, and called in by the physician - allow for this verification process to take place. However, if the patient were to call in the prescription themselves, there would be no way to ensure that it is accurate and appropriate for their condition.

    Which of the following deals specifically with practicing pharmacist and requires pharmacists to counsel all patients receiving new prescriptions?

    • OBRA

    • FDA

    • PPPA

    • DEA

    Correct Answer
    A. OBRA
    Explanation
    OBRA, which stands for the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, deals specifically with practicing pharmacists and requires them to counsel all patients receiving new prescriptions. This legislation was enacted in 1990 to improve the quality of care provided to Medicaid patients, and one of its provisions is the requirement for pharmacists to offer counseling to patients about their medications. This ensures that patients have a clear understanding of their prescriptions and any potential side effects or interactions. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is a regulatory agency responsible for ensuring the safety and efficacy of drugs, but it does not specifically address pharmacist counseling. PPPA (Poison Prevention Packaging Act) requires child-resistant packaging for certain medications and household products, while the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) is responsible for enforcing controlled substance laws and regulations.

    A physician asks you to prepare 15g of Benadryl 0.5% cream.Benadryl 1% cream is available over the counter.How many grams of Benadryl will be needed to complete this order?

    • 0.5 g

    • 7.5 g

    • 50 g

    • 750 g

    Correct Answer
    A. 7.5 g
    Explanation
    To prepare the 0.5% cream, we need to dilute the 1% cream by half. This means that for every 1g of 1% cream, we need to add 1g of a diluent to make it 0.5%. Therefore, to prepare 15g of 0.5% cream, we need 15g of the 1% cream and 15g of the diluent. Since the question asks for the amount of Benadryl needed, we only need to consider the 1% cream. Therefore, we need 15g of Benadryl, which is equivalent to the 7.5g of the 1% cream.

    • Capitation payment

    Correct Answer
    A. Prior authorization
    Explanation
    Prior authorization is the requirement that a non-formulary medication be covered only if approved by the third party payer. This means that before a patient can receive a non-formulary medication, their healthcare provider must obtain approval from the insurance company or other third party payer. This is done to ensure that the medication is medically necessary and appropriate for the patient's condition, and to control costs by limiting the use of expensive or non-preferred medications.
