Abstract__ Background Hemodialysis patient are at high risk for hepatitis B virus HBV infection. Although preventive vaccination is done routinely the response to vaccination is low in this patient population. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Levamizol an enhancer of the immune responsiveness on different routs of vaccination . intradermal ID versus intramuscular IM in stable chronic hemodialysis patients. Materials and methods Forty four chronic heamodialyses patient were divided into four equal groups. The first group was received 40 pg HB vaccine intramuscularly. The second group was received 20 pg HB vaccine intradermally. The third and the fourth group received 20 pg vaccine IM or
