Common symptoms of autoimmune diseases include swelling, pain, and lacerations. Low dose naltrexone (LDN) helps provide relief by modulating the immune system and reducing inflammation in patients.
LDN also helps promote endorphin levels for users, which can further reduce symptoms of autoimmune diseases. Many people with autoimmune diseases also suffer from lower levels of endorphins. LDN can help replenish this deficit.
Responses vary. Some see changes in weeks but in general most will experience the full effects after 2 months of use.
Consistency is key and it is important to track symptoms and work with your prescriber.
You can take the dose as soon as you remember, unless it is within 6 hours of your next dose. Then resume your normal dosing schedule.
Never double dose. If you miss a dose, it is okay to skip it and continue with your dosing schedule.
Most plans don’t cover off-label compounded medications such as LDN. However, we do provide transparent cash pricing.
Some FSAs/HSAs accept LDN receipts. We are always happy to supply documentation.
For most forms of the medication (troches, capsules, etc.) it should be stored at room temperature in airtight containers away from light and humidity.
Avoid bathrooms and other areas in the home where temperatures and humidity fluctuate.
Most are mild: vivid dreams, sleep disturbances, or temporary headaches.
These often fade within weeks. We adjust doses to minimize reactions.
Autoimmune diseases are conditions where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues and cells.
Our immune system identifies potentially dangerous bacteria or viruses within the body. Once identified, it sends white blood cells to eliminate the threat and protect the body from harm. But what happens when your body can’t identify potential threats correctly?
When our immune system does not correctly identify the malignant pathogens, it can mistakenly attack our healthy cells. These attacks lead to inflammation, pain, and even bodily damage to the individual.
Many autoimmune diseases affect different body functions and cause distinct symptoms. The wide range of possibilities makes it difficult to diagnose and pinpoint the cause of certain illnesses.
There is overwhelming anecdotal evidence for its use in MS, and MS patients have shown their praise for the drug. Patients report experiencing not only a prevention of relapses but also a reduction in disease progression.
Doctors propose that LDN helps prevent the natural death of myelinating cells in the central nervous system. Further studies corroborate the positive anecdotal evidence.
Crohn’s disease is a chronic inflammatory bowel illness that affects the gastrointestinal tract.
LDN’s ability to reduce inflammation and swelling throughout the body has shown promising results for Crohn’s disease and other gut health illnesses.
Opioid antagonists such as LDN can play a role in healing and repairing damaged tissues. Though more studies are necessary, recent studies have shown promise.
Compounding pharmacies compound LDN into various medication forms, including capsules. LDN capsules are typically taken at bedtime when the body naturally produces most of its endorphins.
The capsules are available in various strengths, ranging from 1.5 mg to 4.5 mg, and can be customized to meet individual needs. The recommended starting dose for LDN is typically 1.5 mg, gradually increasing over time as needed.
Like any medication, LDN can have potential side effects. However, LDN is generally well-tolerated, and side effects are typically mild and temporary.
Some possible side effects of LDN Capsules include headache, nausea, and sleep disturbances.
It is essential to talk to your healthcare provider before starting LDN or any other new medication and report any side effects you experience.
LDN Capsules are a promising medication option for many health conditions. Talk to your healthcare provider to see if it’s appropriate for you.
We develop treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs and symptoms. With proper guidance and monitoring, LDN capsules can help relieve symptoms of autoimmune diseases.
