Chapter 3, Problem 1P
Summary Introduction
To describe: Difference between dose and dosage.
Introduction: A drug is a substance that alters the biological activity in a person. A drug has more than one effect on the body; some of them are desirable and some are undesirable. Every drug has its optimum therapeutic concentration and frequency of administration.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The frequency and dose of a drug is very important to maintain effective concentration in the body. A drug enters the body by a chosen route, circulates through the blood stream, and reaches the site of action. Once there, the drug shows its effects, is
The difference between the terms “dose” and “dosage” is given below:
Dosage refers to the total amount of the drug given over a period of time. Therefore, it includes the amount of drug and time duration.

Effective work-groups and communication are crucial for any organization to achieve its mission, vision, and goals. For example, the chief executive officer (CEO) of a hospital has many high-level responsibilities, including working on the upcoming budget. This requires group thinking with department managers and the administrative team working together. Communication in groups is important because without it there is an increased risk of conflict, tension, and misunderstandings in the workplace. Good communication is vital because it is the foundation of a healthy culture and a properly functioning team. When a team has excellent communication, all other aspects of a business can flourish.
Consider the collaboration process, then share an example of an effective work group used in health care.
Discuss one effective communication technique used in a group setting and explain why it is important.
Discuss at least one conflict that can occur during a team project.
