Comparison of Dexamethasone and Hydrocortisone teratogenic effect on chick embryo
Objective: Dexamethasone and Hydrocortisone are two glucocorticoids widely used to alleviate moderate to acute inflammation. But due to their different pharmacokinetics, potential of these drugs in initiation of abnormalities is not equivalent with their pharmacologic activities. Their different pha...
