  1. All About Low Dose Naltrexone

  2. What is Low Dose Naltrexone? LowDose Naltrexone (LDN) is the term used for any dose of Naltrexone under 10mg a day. Studies have shown that when Naltrexone is used at a low dose, it blocks opioid receptors only for a couple of hours. During this brief time, a “rebound effect” occurs in which there is an increased production and utilization of endorphins and opioid receptors.

  3. Benefits of LDN LDN is helpful is treating various female conditions such as PMS symptoms, Persistent fatigue, Sleep issues, disturbance, insomnia, Low mood, depression, Anxiety and Underactive thyroid. LDN is also used for chronic diseases including Multiple sclerosis, Lyme disease, Chronic pain, Autoimmune Arthritis, Inflammatory bowel disease, Psoriasis and more.

  4. How Is LDN Dosed? LDN is started at a super ultra low dose anywhere between 0.5mg to 1.5mg at night-time. If you are doing well, without side effects then your dose is very slowly increased. Dose adjustment occurs over 4 to 8 weeks until you feel stable. Most people will have symptom controlled at a daily dose of anywhere between 3mg to 5mg.
