Explore Low Dose Naltrexone Compounding for Multiple Conditions
Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) is a pharmaceutical utility knife that has demonstrated a wide variety of benefits. LDN has been prescribed to treat autoimmune diseases, chronic pain, mental health, neurological disorders, and other conditions including insomnia, Lyme Disease, and psoriasis.
Originally developed as a 50mg dose to treat opioid and alcohol addiction, the administration of naltrexone in 1 – 5mg doses provides symptom relief for many diseases. Small doses of low dose naltrexone bind to our opioid receptors to prevent naturally occurring opioids from building connections. As a result, our bodies produce more opioids and endorphins which help relieve pain. LDN also encourages our bodies to produce less microglial cells which helps reduce inflammation.
It may take 8-10 weeks to notice the benefits of low dose naltrexone, so patience is required at the start of any treatment program. Side effects that have been noticed among LDN patients, while infrequent, include insomnia, nausea, and vivid dreams.
