The effect of levamisole on the maintenance of remission of ulcerative colitis. A 2-year double-blind study.
The results of our study of 50 patients show that levamisole is ineffective in the treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis. The data presented here support our hypothesis that the only effective drugs in ulcerative colitis act as suppressors of both acquired and natural immunity.
