Chapter 1, The Foundation of Pharmacology: Quality and Safety
1. A woman diagnosed with obsessive–compulsive disorder has been
prescribed oralparoxetine hydrochloride. What is the expected effect for this
prescription?
A. Curative effect on symptoms
B. Systemic effect on symptoms
C. Local effect on symptoms
D. Parenteral effect on symptoms
ANS: B
Rationale: Drugs that produce systemic effects are taken into the body, circulated
through the bloodstream to their sites of action in various body tissues, and
eventually eliminated from the body. Curative agents are given to cure a disease
process. In this case, paroxetine hydrochloride will control the symptoms but not cure
the disorder. Drugs with local effects,such as sunscreen and local anesthetics, act
mainly at the site of application. Paroxetine hydrochloride is not administered

parenterally. Parenteral agents are administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly, or
intravenously.

.C is another name for this type of
medication?
A. Synthetic drug
B. Semisynthetic drug
C. Biotechnology drug
D. Prototype drug
ANS: B
Rationale: Semisynthetic drugs (e.g., many antibiotics) are naturally occurring
substances that have been chemically modified. Synthetic drugs are more standardized
in their chemicalcharacteristics, more consistent in their effects, and less likely to
produce allergic reactions. Biotechnology drugs involve manipulating DNA and RNA
and recombining genes into hybrid molecules that can be inserted into living
organisms. Prototype drugs are the first drug of a particular group to be developed.
