Preferred Label : levamisole;
MeSH definition : An antihelminthic drug that has been tried experimentally in rheumatic disorders where
it apparently restores the immune response by increasing macrophage chemotaxis and
T-lymphocyte function. Paradoxically, this immune enhancement appears to be beneficial
in rheumatoid arthritis where dermatitis, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia, and nausea
and vomiting have been reported as side effects. (From Smith and Reynard, Textbook
of Pharmacology, 1991, p435-6);
