Can Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) be used for weight loss?  

I would say we do not see a lot of people on it for that specific indication. There is a section on the Research Trust website where people talk about that and it was talked about at the last two conferences. You will be able to find a lot more information from people who are far more experienced than me on the LDN Research Trust website.  

There are few people asking whether LDN can help with weight loss when taking alongside the new medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy. My feeling is probably yes but I can't tell you if there are any papers available that I could point you towards.
