D. Parenteral effect on symptoms xxi xxi xxi

Rationale: Drugs that produce systemic effects are taken into the body, circulated through
xxi xxi xx i xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xx i xxi
x the bloodstream to their sites of action in various body tissues, and eventually eliminated
x i xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xx i xxi xx i xxi xxi
x from the body. Curative agents are given to cure a disease process. In this case,
x i xxi xxi xx i xxi xxi xxi xxi xx i xxi xxi xxi xx i xxi xxi
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.

C. Biotechnology drug xxi
D. Prototype drug xxi
ANS: B xxi xxi
Rationale: Semisynthetic drugs (e.g., many antibiotics) are naturally occurring substances

x that have been chemically modified. Synthetic drugs are more standardized in their
x i xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi
chemical characteristics, more consistent in their effects, and less likely to produce allergic

reactions. Biotechnology drugs involve manipulating DNA and RNA and recombining
xxi x x i xxi xx i xx i xxi xxi xxi xxi xxi
genes into hybrid molecules that can be inserted into living organisms. Prototype drugs

are the first
