Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) is not a medication that we build a tolerance to, but if it “feels” like it has stopped working, it is recommended with the prescriber’s authorization, to stop LDN for 1-3 days and start at a lower dose.

In some situations, LDN may be stopped for a longer period of time, it again depends on the diagnosis.
