1. A woman diagnosed with obsessive–compulsive disorder has been prescribed oral
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




paroxetine hydrochloride. What is the expected effect for this prescription?
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




A. Curative effect on symptoms 5v 5v 5v




B. Systemic effect on symptoms 5v 5v 5v




C. Local effect on symptoms 5v 5v 5v




D. Parenteral effect on symptoms 5v 5v 5v




ANS: B 5 v




Rationale: Drugs that produce systemic effects are taken into the body, circulated through
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




the bloodstream to their sites of action in various body tissues, and eventually eliminated
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




from the body. Curative agents are given to cure a disease process. In this case, paroxetine
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




hydrochloride will control the symptoms but not cure the disorder. Drugs with local effects,
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




such as sunscreen and local anesthetics, act mainly at the site of application. Paroxetine
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




hydrochloride is not administered parenterally. Parenteral agents are administered
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




subcutaneously, intramuscularly, or intravenously.

.C is another name for this type of

medication?

A. Synthetic drug 5v




B. Semisynthetic drug 5v




C. Biotechnology drug 5v




D. Prototype drug 5v




ANS: B 5 v




Rationale: Semisynthetic drugs (e.g., many antibiotics) are naturally occurring substances
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




that have been chemically modified. Synthetic drugs are more standardized in their chemical
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




characteristics, more consistent in their effects, and less likely to produce allergic reactions.
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




Biotechnology drugs involve manipulating DNA and RNA and recombining genes into
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




hybrid molecules that can be inserted into living organisms. Prototype drugs are the first
5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v 5v




drug of a particular group to be developed.
