A member asked:
What are levamisole tablets used for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Worm medicine: levamisole was used to treat certain helminthic (worm) diseases in humans, but was pulled from the human medicine market because of serious side effects, and now is rarely used even in veterinary practice because of the same kinds of side effects - very low white counts, severe and serious infections and inflammatory/autoimmune disorders. It is being used to "cut" cocaine for unknown reasons.
