Résumé
ENL is a type ll leprosy reaction and occurs in people with borderline lepromatous and lepromatous leprosy, usually as a complication following treatment. The treatment of choice for ENL is prednisolone in view of its’ ready availability and affordability1. Howeve r, glucocorticoid therapy, even in low doses, can produce substantial toxicity. The risk is clearly greater as the dose increases. However, in cases where there are steroid-induced complications, high-dosed clofazimine may be used to reduce or withdraw corticosteroids in steroid-dependant cases2,3. We described 2 steroid-dependent ENL patients with steroid-induced complications who are successfully managed with the addition of highdosed clofazimine and the resultant weaning down of systemic glucocorticoids.
