Chapter 1 : The Foundation of Pharmacology: Quality and
Safety :
1. A woman diagnosed with obsessive–compulsive disorder has 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
CORRECT ANSWER: 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.

2. A client has been prescribed an antibiotic. This medication is a naturally occurring
substance that has been chemically modified. What is another name for this type of medication?
A. Synthetic drug
B. Semisynthetic drug
C. Biotechnology drug
D. Prototype drug
CORRECT ANSWER: B
Rationale: Semisynthetic drugs (e.g., many antibiotics) are naturally occurring substances that
have been chemically modified. Synthetic drugs are more standardized in their chemical
characteristics, 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.
