摘要
A brief review of the immunostimulative and anti-inflammatory properties of levamisole is followed by a research report which indicates that in rats under antigenic challenge by ovalbumin, oral levamisole (18 mg/kg) decreases corticosterone levels. This previously unreported finding may belie the immunostimulative effect of levamisole.
