Abstract
Free hydrocortisone, hydrocortisone incorporated into microspheres and empty microspheres have been administered orally to rats with carrageenan-induced hindpaw inflammation. Hydrocortisone administered in particles was effective at a lower dose than free steroid in reducing inflammation. Inflammatory exudates were able to release steroid from the microspheres by proteolytic degradation.Entities:
