I figured I’d jump in and start a little thread here regarding alternative options...

If you're looking for the deep dive, this site has just about everything you need to know about LDN: http://www.lowdosenaltrexone.org/

So, just to give some context—Naltrexone is actually an FDA-approved medication here in the States; it’s been around since 1984, typically prescribed at 50mg doses to help people weaning off heroin or opioids by essentially blocking those effects (there's a much more thorough breakdown of how that works on the website)
. Back in 1985, dr. Bihari, who was running his own practice over in New York City, noticed something unexpected... he found that using tiny amounts of Naltrexone—just 3mg a day—actually seemed to boost the immune response in patients dealing with HIV.
Then, moving into the mid-90s, dr. Bihari discovered that these low doses might also assist patients fighting cancer—in some cases, the results were quite dramatic, even surpassing what you'd see from Mekki 😁. On top of that, a number of people have found they can actually manage their autoimmune conditions using LDN...

Anyway, that’s just a brief little overview... everything else is laid out clearly on the site.😁

One more thing I should probably mention, though... you don't have to buy into any specific theories or believe in pharmaceutical conspiracy plots to look into this. At the end of the day, it's a substance just like any other—it has its own set of side effects and its own specific impacts. Just do your own reading and stay informed... the website provides plenty of links to all the existing research involving LDN if you want to dig deeper.

I'm living with multiple sclerosis. I've decided to give LDN a shot, so I'm asking anyone currently on naltrexone therapy to jump into this thread and share what you've been through. How long have you been taking it? What dosage (mg) are you using? And specifically, how much relief did you actually feel?

Judging by everything one can gather about this particular chemical—honestly, I don't think this topic even belongs under the "alternative" umbrella! We are talking about a medication with a well-documented mechanism of action and some rather fascinating side effects.

It’s been mentioned here quite a few times—along with several other topics on this board—but I suppose we all know what the Health subforum rules dictate regarding this sort of thing.
As noted in the introductory post, the word "medication" is used in quotes for a reason—it doesn't belong in this PDF.
