A preliminary report on levo-tetramisole: a new drug for intestinal capillariasis

ABSTRACT

Levo-tetramisole was found most effective in the treatment of C. philippinensis infection when given at a dose of 2.5 mg./kg. day for as long as 30 days. The exact value of this drug, however, depends on the further treatment evaluation. Side effects of the drug administration were, however, mild and transient and did not interfere with the completion of the treatment
