  • Title: Treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus with the T-cell immunopotentiator levamisole: a follow-up report of 16 patients under treatment for a minimum period of four months.
    Author: Gordon BL, Yanagihara R.
    Journal: Ann Allergy; 1977 Oct; 39(4):227-36. PubMed ID: 71868.
    Abstract:
    Treatment of 16 SLE patients with levamisole resulted in significant reduction of a variety of clinical parameters of the disease. Clinical improvement was both subjective and objective. Thus, levamisole may represent a possible alternative or adjunctive approach to SLE therapy. Although proper assessment of its actual quantitative importance in the treatment of Lupus must await large scale studies under double-blind conditions, nevertheless, these preliminary results are very encouraging.
