Linda Elsegood: I'd like to introduce Darlene from the United States who takes LDN. Thank you for joining me, Darlene.

Darlene: I had lupus for many years and started back when I was raising my young children, and I felt fatigued and feel all the time. So I found the LDN.

Linda Elsegood: Before we start Darlene, what are the conditions do you have?

What autoimmune conditions that you use LDN for?

Darlene: Well, I use it for Myasthenia Gravis also, another autoimmune disease.

 

Jill Cottel, MD - Treating the Zebras in Primary Care (2017 Conference) (LDN, low dose naltrexone)

In this presentation Dr Cottel shares case studies of patients:

36 year old woman with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. This lady was started on Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) at 1.5mg, increased to 3 mg and found she lost her earlier improvement but on going down to a much lower dose she improved significantly. 

Dickson Chemist developed a new formulation of LDN which will hopefully improve the outcomes for patients. This new formulation is a more concentrated liquid in the form of drops which are administered under the tongue and absorbed directly from the mucosal lining of the mouth. This sublingual route produces a more rapid absorption bypassing the liver and digestive tract. There are several potential advantages to this, the drug may be more effective and will not be affected by the presence of food stuffs or the hostile environment of the gut.
