Seventy cases of Lepra reaction were studied. Value of antimonials is stressed. Corticosteroid is very potent, but should be sparingly used for its frequent relapse, drug dependence, prohibitive cost and undesirable side-effects. Antimalarials have shown good result. Flagyl was found effective in only one case. it needs further trial. Capyna and placebo have not proved effective. Long acting sulfas have given good result and is worth trying.
