Summary

Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome is sensitive to steroid in 90% of children. However, most patients relapse and become steroid-dependant, with a long lasting relapsing course. The aim of this study is to assess the efficiency of a 6-months levamisole course, given early after first remission, on maintaining a relapse-free course at 12 months.
