The process change adopted in PACITANE is Wet granulation to Direct Compression
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The process change adopted in PACITANE is from wet granulation to direct compression. This means that the previous method of wet granulation, which involves mixing the active ingredient with a liquid binder and then drying and granulating the mixture, has been replaced with direct compression. Direct compression is a simpler and more efficient method where the active ingredient is directly compressed into tablets without the need for granulation. This change in process can result in cost savings and improved product quality.Rate this question:

The potency of transporter and/or receptor binding can theoretically predict __________ and ________ of anti-depressants
- A.
Tolerability and side effect profile
- B.
Clinical efficacy and side effect profile
- C.
Onset of action and tolerability

This means that the strength of the binding between the drug and the transporter or receptor can give an indication of how effective the drug will be in treating depression, as well as what potential side effects it may have. By understanding the potency of the drug's binding, researchers and clinicians can make informed decisions about which anti-depressants to prescribe to patients based on their desired clinical outcomes and potential side effects.Rate this question:

80% of 5-HTT receptor occupancy is necessary for SSRI treatment
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
An explanation for the given correct answer is that SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) treatment requires a minimum of 80% occupancy of the 5-HTT receptors. These receptors are responsible for regulating the levels of serotonin in the brain. By inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin, SSRIs increase its concentration in the synaptic cleft, leading to improved mood and reduced symptoms of depression. Therefore, achieving at least 80% occupancy of the 5-HTT receptors is necessary for the therapeutic effects of SSRIs.Rate this question:
