Treatment of Moderately Severe Erythema Nodosum Leprosum with Thalidomide - A Double-blind Controlled Trial

Abstract

This carefully planned, controlled, double-blind trial of the value of thalidomide in the treatment of long-standing, moderately severe erythema nodosmn leprosum showed that thalidomide was superior to a placebo, allowed for the concomitant reduction of other anti-ENL drugs, and was clearly prefeh-ed by the patients themselves.
