[Development of lymphocyte subpopulations (CD4, CD8) in levomethadone treated HIV infected intravenous drug dependent patients].
The effect of Levomethadon on the amount of the lymphocyte subpopulation (CD4/CD8) was studied during 18 months in 18 HIV-infected heroin addicted patients. While the overall clinical aspect of all patients improved remarkably there was no significant change in the amount of the lymphocyte subpopulation.
