Would  LDN be effective for neuropathy and if so what would be the dose?  You know, most neuropathy inflammation of the nerve or the sheath surrounding the nerve is going to be benefited by Low-Dose Naltrexone just because of how it works on those receptors to reduce inflammation again, most neuropathies are either autoimmune or there's potentially some damage maybe trauma to the area again all of that is inflammatory in nature so that's where LDN could very easily step in, we have seen it used especially in diabetic neuropathy where you have some peripheral issues so in the fingers and the toes so peripherally meaning out in the out in the margins and that's been very helpful but again MS is a type of neuropathy so to speak as well and we know that LDN has been very helpful for multiple sclerosis for a long time.
