FAQs
-
Naltrexone is a medication that was approved in the 1980s by the FDA to treat drug and alcohol addiction. It works by blocking opioid receptors. It was found that at much lower doses than those used to treat addiction, it could have a positive effect on the immune system and potentially help relieve symptoms of many common disorders.

LDN is taken by mouth – usually either capsule or liquid form. Dosing ranges from 0.5 to 9mg per day. The most common effective dose is 4.5mg, but can vary from person to person. It is recommended to be taken at bedtime, but can also be effective if taken during the day.
-
Since LDN is a prescription medication, you need a prescription from a licensed medical doctor. This website allows you to video conference with a medical doctor (or his assistant) and obtain a prescription, if appropriate. The prescription will need to be sent to a compounding pharmacy of your choice and would be dispensed just like any other medication.
-
Your prescription will be faxed to the pharmacy of your choice within two business days of your consult. Some pharmacies take an additional two business days to contact patients.
