A fundamental principle of pharmacology is that all drugs have multiple actions. Actions that are desirable in the treatment of disease are considered therapeutic, while those that are undesirable or pose risks to the patient are called "effects." Adverse drug effects range from the trivial, e.g., nausea or dry mouth, to the serious, e.g., massive gastrointestinal bleeding or thromboembolism; and some drugs can be lethal. Therefore, an effective system for the detection of adverse drug effects is an important component of the health care system of any advanced nation. Much of the research conducted on new drugs aims at identifying the conditions of use that maximize beneficial effects and minimize the risk of adverse effects.
The intent of drug labeling is to reflect this body of knowledge accurately so that physicians can properly prescribe the drug; or, if it is to be sold without prescription, so that consumers can properly use the drug.
The current system of drug investigation in the United States has proved very useful and accurate in identifying the common side effects associated with new prescription drugs. By the time a new drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration, its side effects are usually well described in the package insert for physicians. The investigational process, however, cannot be counted on to detect all adverse effects because of the relatively small number of patients involved in premarketing studies and the relatively short duration of the studies.
Animal toxicology studies are, of course, done prior to marketing in an attempt to identify any potential for toxicity, but negative results do not guarantee the safety of a drug in humans, as evidenced by such well known examples as the birth deformities due to thalidomide.
This recognition prompted the establishment in many countries of programs to which physicians report adverse drug effects. The United States and other countries also send reports to an international program operated by the World Health Organization. These programs, however, are voluntary reporting programs and are intended to serve a limited goal: alerting a government or private agency to adverse drug effects detected by physicians in the course of practice. Other approaches must be used to confirm suspected drug reactions and to estimate incidence rates. These other approaches include conducting retrospective control studies; for example, the studies associating endometrial cancer with estrogen use, and systematic monitoring of hospitalized patients to determine the incidence of acute common side effects, as typified by the Boston Collaborative Drug Surveillance Program.
Thus, the overall drug surveillance system of the United States is composed of a set of information bases, special studies, and monitoring programs, each contributing in its own way to our knowledge about marketed drugs. The system is decentralized among a number of governmental units and is not administered as a coordinated function. Still, it would be inappropriate at this time to attempt to unite all of the disparate elements into a comprehensive surveillance program. Instead, the challenge is to improve each segment of the system and to take advantage of new computer strategies to improve coordination and communication.

Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 5 ] :
Out of his total income, a man spends 20% on house rent and 70% of the rest on household purposes. If he saves Rs. 1800.00, what is his total income ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
His total income is Rs. 7500.00.
Let the income be \(x\). Rent takes 20%, leaving \(0.8x\). Household spending is 70% of that rest, so he saves the other 30% of it.
\[ \begin{aligned} \text{savings} &= 0.3 \times 0.8x = 0.24x \\ 0.24x &= 1800 \\ x &= 7500 \end{aligned} \]
Check: rent is Rs. 1500, leaving Rs. 6000; household spending is 70% of 6000, Rs. 4200; savings are \(6000 - 4200 = 1800\). Taking 70% of the whole income instead of the rest leaves savings of 10%, giving Rs. 18000, which is why 'None of these' tempts; Rs. 8500 and Rs. 7200 do not give savings of Rs. 1800.
A frog jumps 3 steps and a rabbit jumps 7 steps at a time starting from a place O. At which of the following steps, they both will be jumping together ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
They will jump together at step 378.
The frog lands on multiples of 3 and the rabbit on multiples of 7, so they meet only on common multiples of 3 and 7, that is, multiples of their LCM, 21.
\[ 378 = 21 \times 18 \]
The others fail one test: 343 = 7 × 49 and 371 = 7 × 53 are multiples of 7 but not of 3 (digit sums 10 and 11), while 354 is a multiple of 3 but not of 7.
A train 108 m long moving at a speed of 50 km/hr crosses a train 112 m long coming from opposite direction in 6 seconds. The speed of the second train is:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Trains moving in the same direction close at the difference of their speeds; in opposite directions, at the sum.
\[ \text{relative speed} = \frac{108 + 112}{6} = \frac{220}{6} = 36.67 \text{ m/s} \]
\[ 36.67 \times \frac{18}{5} = 132 \text{ km/hr} \]
\[ v_{2} = 132 - 50 = 82 \text{ km/hr} \]
The relative speed is the sum here, so the known 50 km/hr is subtracted from it to leave the second train's speed.
If \(5^{a}=3125\), then the value of \(5^{(a-3)}\) is:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
\(5^{a}=3125 \Leftrightarrow 5^{a}=5^{5} \)
\(\Rightarrow a = 5 \)
\(\therefore 5^{(a-3)}=5^{(5-3)}=5^{2}=25\)
"I am five times as old as you were, when I was as old as you are", said a man to his son. Find out their present ages, if the sum of their ages is 64 years ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Let the present age of the man be '\(P\)' and son be '\(Q\)',
Given, \( P + Q = 64 \) or \(Q = (64 - P)\)
Now the man says "I am five times as old as you were, when I was as old as you are",
So, \(P = 5[B - (P - Q)]\)
We get \(6P=10Q\)
Substitute value for \(Q\)
\(6P = 10(64 - P),\)
Therefore, \(P\) = 40 and \(Q\) = 24

10, 100, 200, 310, ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: 430
The gaps rise by ten each time: \( 100-10=90 \), \( 200-100=100 \), \( 310-200=110 \). The next gap is 120, giving \[ 310 + 120 = \mathbf{430} \]
In the following problem, '=' stands for '÷' , '+' stands for '-' , 'x' stands for '=', '-' stands for '+' and '÷' stands for 'x'. Find the correct equation.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: 5 ÷ 3 - 25 + 20 = 20 x 39
The substitutions are \( = \to \div \), \( + \to - \), \( \times \to = \), \( - \to + \) and \( \div \to \times \). Note that \( \times \) becomes the equals sign, so it marks where the two sides of the equation meet.
Decoding the correct option gives \( 5 \times 3 + 25 - 20 \div 20 = 39 \), and by BODMAS \[ 15 + 25 - 1 = 39 \] which is true. For contrast, \( 96 \div 2\ \text{x}\ 6 \div 105 + 1 \) decodes to \( 192 = 630 - 1 \), which is false.

The author is primarily concerned with discussing:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: the importance of having accurate information about the effects of drugs
The passage moves from the principle that all drugs have multiple actions, to the purpose of research and labelling, to the limits of the investigational process in detecting rare effects. Testing methods and long-term studies appear as means to that information; abuse of prescription drugs is never raised.

A thousand years ago, boys and girls did not ______ to read. Books were very scarce and very precious, and only a few men could read. A good book would sometimes cost as ______ as a good house.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The right pair is 'learn' and 'much'. 'Boys and girls did not learn to read' fits the idea that books were scarce and only a few men could read. The phrase 'cost as much as a good house' is the usual comparison. 'Remember to read', 'want to read' and 'need to read' do not carry the same sense of acquiring the skill, and 'as more as', 'as most as' and 'as high as' are not correct in the second blank.
Choose the grammatically correct sentence.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: He will not pay unless he is compelled
Unless already means if not, so the clause it introduces stays positive and in the present tense even though the main clause is future.
Why the others fail:
- unless he is not compelled - a double negative, which says the opposite of what is meant.
- unless he will be compelled - a clause of condition or time does not take will.
- till he is compelled - till marks time, not condition, and changes the meaning.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
It is would.
Would is the auxiliary used in conditional sentences. Wood is the material, and the l of would is silent, so the two sound the same.

The evidences of ‘pit-dwelling’ have been discovered from which ancient Indian sites?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
They are from Burzahom and Gufkral.
Both are Neolithic sites in Kashmir where dwellings were dug into the loess, wide at the base and narrow at the top, reached by steps and with hearths inside - an answer to the cold. Burzahom also yielded dog burials with their masters.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The sawdust catches fire because concentrated nitric acid is a powerful oxidising agent.
It oxidises the cellulose rapidly, and the heat evolved is enough to raise the wood above its ignition temperature. Concentrated sulphuric acid, by contrast, chars sugar and wood by dehydration, leaving black carbon rather than setting it alight.

Phagocytes engulf bacteria and other foreign particles, taking them into a vesicle and digesting them with enzymes - a process called phagocytosis.
Neutrophils and macrophages are the main types. Albumin, globulin and fibrinogen are plasma proteins, not cells.
Judges of the Supreme Court of India are appointed by
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: The President, after consultation with the collegium
Under Article 124 judges of the Supreme Court are appointed by the President, who must consult such judges of the Supreme Court and the High Courts as are considered necessary, and must consult the Chief Justice of India for every appointment other than that of the Chief Justice. What that consultation means has been settled by litigation rather than text. In the Three Judges Cases, culminating in 1993 and 1998, the Supreme Court held that consultation means concurrence, and established the collegium - the Chief Justice and the four senior-most judges - whose recommendation is binding on the executive, which may return a name once but must accept it if repeated. Parliament tried to replace this in 2014 with a National Judicial Appointments Commission, but the Supreme Court struck the 99th Amendment down in 2015 as violating judicial independence, part of the basic structure. A judge holds office to the age of 65 and can be removed only by impeachment for proved misbehaviour or incapacity.
