The purpose of this study is to examine how hydrocortisone affects a few blood parameters in female rabbits. Ten local rabbits were split into two equal and random groups. As a control, the first group was employed. The second group received daily intramuscular injections of hydrocortisone at a dose of 0.1 mg/kg B.W. Blood serum was collected every day from the first day and evaluated for total cholesterol, HDL (high-density lipoprotein), LDL (low-density lipoprotein), TG (triglycerides), and total protein after five weeks. The findings demonstrated that hydrocortisone reduced total protein and cholesterol.
