Effect of Certain Tranquilizers on The Reticulo Endothelial System

Summary Administration of excessive doses of certain tranquilizers decreased the phagocytic activity of the reticulo endothelial system. This decrease of phagocytic activity did not occur in adrenalectomized animals given hydroxyzine. The significance of this finding is discussed in relation to the...

The significance of this finding is discussed in relation to the strong RES inhibition produced by corticosteroids (6.2).
