Leukocyte defects?

Steroids and morphine
are often used as treatments for chronic inflammation. How do providers protect
the patient against these defects in leukocyte function with prolonged use? Do
benefits outweigh problems?
Excuse me but when have morphine sulfate and morphine hydrochloride ever been
used to treat inflammation, chronic or acute?

Long-term use of MS can cause thrombocytopenia, true. But where did you get the
idea that corticosteroids cause blood dyscrasias?
