The increase use of medicinal plants during last 5 years encourages us to study the possible effects of Coustus Speciosus. Objective: In the present study, we tested the effect of Costus speciosus on the toxicity of Lead acetate. Results: The results showed an increase of EPO and high expression levels of GATA-1 and FOG-1 while there is a low expressional level of SCF in animals treated with Costus speciosus. Conclusion: Costus Specious has the ability to ameliorate the toxicity of lead acetate on erythropioesis.
