Every group was given two sticks of cigarette smoked per day during two weeks then smoked with treatment during one week. Neutrophil from peripheral smear was observed by manual method and statistically analyzed using Anova Mixed Design and continued with One Way Anova. The result showed signiï¬ cant increased of  neutrophil at second observation on control group (p=0.002) and treatment groups (p=0.000). Signiï¬ cance decreased also found in the treatment groups's at third observation p=0.000. Signiï¬ cant between each group p= 0.017. There was signiï¬ cant different between control and treatment groups but there was no signiï¬ cant different between each treatment groups.
