Have we heard positive results of using Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) to treat idiopathic peripheral neuropathy ?

Yes, and I think you're going to hear that a lot, mainly because when we're dealing with peripheral neuropathy, we're generally treating an inflammatory process, and so low-dose naltrexone is excellent in helping reduce inflammation, not just centrally but also peripherally. So we see that a lot in application with other medications. So the use of low dose naltrexone with other medications, not necessarily as a monotherapy, but I think no matter where you're at, anywhere in the world, low dose naltrexone (LDN) would be potentially beneficial in helping with peripheral neuropathy.
