1. A woman diagnosed with obsessive–

compulsive disorder has been prescribed oral paroxetine hydrochloride. What is
mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi
the expected effect for this prescription?
mi mi mi mi mi mi
A. Curative effect on symptoms mi mi mi
B. Systemic effect on symptoms mi mi mi
C. Local effect on symptoms mi mi mi
D. Parenteral effect on symptoms mi mi mi
ANS: B m i
Rationale: Drugs that produce systemic effects are taken into the body, circulated throug
mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi
h the bloodstream to their sites of action in various body tissues, and eventually eliminat
mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi
ed from the body. Curative agents are given to cure a disease process. In this case, paro
mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi
xetine hydrochloride will control the symptoms but not cure the disorder. Drugs with loca
mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi
l effects, such as sunscreen and local anesthetics, act mainly at the site of application. Pa
mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi mi
roxetine hydrochloride is not administered parenterally. Parenteral agents are administere
