Erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) reaction after completion of the 12-month regimen

Leprosy Mailing List – January 23rd, 2010

Ref.: Erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL) reaction after completion of the 12-month regimen.

From: Pranab K. Das, Amsterdam, The Netherlands


Dear Salvatore,


In reference to Dr Wim van Brakel's response to Dr. Gilead, I quote,

"We see many former patients nowadays who develop ENL reactions after their 12-month regimen has been completed, just due to the withdrawal of clofazimine",

how sure Dr van Brakel is about his statement? I shall be interested to hear more about it.

With regards,


Pranab K. Das
