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
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.

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 chemical characteristics, more
consistent in their effects, and less likely to produce allergic reactions. Biotechnology drugs involve
