D. Parenteral effect on symptoms st st st
ANS: B s t
Rationale: Drugs that produce systemic effects are taken into the body, circulated through the b
st st st st st st st st st st st st st st
loodstream to their sites of action in various body tissues, and eventually eliminated from the b
st st st st st st st st st st st st st st st
ody. Curative agents are given to cure a disease process. In this case, paroxetine hydrochloride
st st st st st st st st st st st st st st st
will control the symptoms but not cure the disorder. Drugs with local effects, such as sunscreen
st st st st st st st st st st st st st st st st
and local anesthetics, act mainly at the site of application. Paroxetine hydrochloride is not admi

ANS: B s t
Rationale: Semisynthetic drugs (e.g., many antibiotics) are naturally occurring substances that
st st st st st st st st st st st
have been chemically modified. Synthetic drugs are more standardized in their chemical charac
st st st st st st st st st st st st
teristics, more consistent in their effects, and less likely to produce allergic reactions. Biotechn
st st st st st st st st st st st st st
ology drugs involve manipulating DNA and RNA and recombining genes into hybrid molecul
st st st st st st st st st st st st
es that can be inserted into living organisms. Prototype drugs are the first drug of a particular gr
