been prescribed oral paroxetine 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
ACCURATE ANSWER:-B
REASONING:->>>Pharmaceutical drug 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.
Pharmaceutical drug 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.
