Pets and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)

A couple of questions about pets and the dosing for pets.  As I said earlier, there's not really a big study. Still, what we've seen in practice and most of the time, you use about 0.3 milligram per kilogram, but you kind of max it, as like human dose,  but the only thing is with pets, they are higher metabolizer of LDN, so they use LDN and metabolize it quicker. Sometimes you need to do it twice a  day dosing, and sometimes you know but maximum but like right around the same dose. Sometimes we've had bigger dogs and probably a little bit higher than human dose because they're just faster metabolizers, and it works really well for them.
