The present study was designed to define the effects of daily administration of 100 mg vitamin E\kg on side effects in mice treated with dexibuprofen (7.2 mg/kg, P.O once daily) for 21 consecutive days and its scavenging capacity. Blood samples were collected from mice on 1st, 2nd, 14th, 21st days post –treatment and tissue samples were collected on 7th, 14th days post- treatment to assess the protective effects of vitamin E. The results indicated significant increase in antioxidant Glutathione , dismutase(SOD)& (CAT) together decrease the level of malondialdehyde besides diminished and in portal fibrosis and decrease in congestion of hepatic blood vessels and sinusoids caused by dexibuprofen administration as demonstrated by kidney histopathology Therefore, Vitamin E should be taken with dexibuprofen to decrease its side effects.

The oxidative stress is thought to four tocopherols and four tocotrienols. All contribute to the initiation and progression of eight feature achromane double ring, with a atherosclerosis. Free radicals catalyze lipid hydroxyl group that can donate a hydrogen peroxidation so can cause damage to cellular atom to reduce free radicals, and a and intracellular structures, so administration hydrophobic side chain which allow of anti-oxidants prevent oxidation of fatty penetration into biological membranes.

We found a vitamin C) and thus return to its reduced state significant changes in antioxidants markers (Traber et al., 2011) Vitamin E is thought to (SOD, CAT, GPX and MDA levels. have a role in preventing atherosclerosis by Histopathological results in liver at 7th day for inhibiting the oxidation of low–density dexibuprofen showed moderate congestion lipoprotein (Fuller et al., 1998). of hepatic blood vessels and sinusoids, mild Vitamin E is a potent naturally occurring biliary proliferation and round cells lipid soluble antioxidant possesses the ability aggregation. On the 14th day showed to directly quench free radicals and function moderate congestion of hepatic blood as a membrane stabilizer. It protects critical vessels, mild biliary proliferation with cellular structures against the damage from fibroplasias and round cells infiltration.

Catalase is surrounding tubules and focal sloughing of a common enzyme found in nearly all living the epithelium. On 14th day showed organisms exposed to oxygen (such as characteristic congestion of the renal blood ,plants, and animals). It catalyzes the vessels and perivascular edema. In the 7th day decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water for Dexibuprofen + Vitamin E the kidney and oxygen (Chelikani et al., 2004). Vitamin sections showed revealed apparently normal E can protect against acute Liver necrosis nephron units in most parts of kidney with induced by carbon tetrachloride (Maurizio et preserved renal papillae and renal pelvis.

Vitamin E is known to act by the 14th day kidney sections showed breaking the antioxidant chain that prevent apparently normal nephron units, renal ROS–produced cell membrane damage papillae and renal pelvis.

Vitamin E is well accepted as nature's most In the present study it was observed that effective lipid–soluble, chain-breaking vitamin E administration to rats produced an antioxidant, protecting cell membrane from appreciable improvement in the peroxidative damage (Kaehler et al., 2003). histopathological changes that occur in Antioxidant Vitamin E retard hepatic fibrosis kidney and liver which associated with in biliary obstructed rats (Parola et al., 1992). administration of Dexibuprofen, also Vitamin E is known to act by breaking the Vitamin E normalized levels of MDA, antioxidant chain that prevent ROS-produced catalase, glutathione peroxidase and cell membrane.
