Title: Remission induced by chlorambucil in steroid-responsive, frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome that relapsed after cyclophosphamide. Author: Bailey RR. Journal: N Z Med J; 1989 Jul 26; 102(872):379-81. PubMed ID: 2797556. Abstract: Five patients with a steroid-responsive, frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome who had failed at least one course of treatment with cyclophosphamide were all put into a long term remission with chlorambucil. One patient developed a severe neutropenia and herpes zoster and another with an epileptic tendency developed myoclonic jerks. The indications and potential hazards of using chlorambucil in this context are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
