Sleep Issues and Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) What would be the dose?

It's really hard to say. A lot of people initially experience sleep disruption, as we might see the first week or so after initiating LDN, or dose escalating. A little bit of restlessness at night. And then after that, it'll kind of settle down, and we might see those deeper states of sleep. But it's hard to say. I would say that's probably the dose for that individual is where they're going to see the best benefit for sleep in general. I don't think there is just specifically a sleep dose.
