Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
Pharmacokinetics is the study of four major processes: medication absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. In 1993, the FDA instituted the MedWatch program. This voluntary program encourages nurses and other health care professionals to report when a medication, product, or medical event causes serious harm to a patient.

Answer to Question 2

D
States pain is a 2 is factual. To be factual, avoid words such as appears, seems, or apparently because they are vague and lead to conclusions that cannot be supported by objective information.
