| Abstract | ||
| This study was designed to study the changes that occur in the phagosytic activity of phagocyte cells during hydrocortisone treatment and an attempt was done to reduce or at least inhibit the side effects of hydrocortisone by using zinc acetate in laboratory mice. The results showed that hydrocortisone have inhibitory effects on the phagosytic activity of phagocyte cells while zinc acetate have a stimulatory effects on phagosytic activity of phagocyte cells and had been take group of mice 24 mice which divided in to four groups, each group contain 6 animal, as fallow: First group G1 (control group): This group was orally administrated with physiological saline for 15 days. Second group G2: This group was muscularly injected (i.m) with 6.25/microgram/kg/day of hydrocortisone for fifteen days. Third group G3: This group was orally administrated with zinc acetate (1 milligram dissolved in 0.1 milliliter of distal water) for fifteen days. The fourth group: This group was muscularly injected (i.m) with hydrocortisone similar to G2 and with zinc acetate similar to G3 for fifteen days. | ||
