Abstract

Steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) is a rare disease of childhood characterised by the urinary loss of proteins, low serum albumin, and oedema. Yet, the exact aetiology remains unknown. Corticosteroids have been the cornerstone of initial treatment, still relapses are common (80%). Levamisole is considered a perfect candidate to prevent relapses of first onset SSNS. This
