> DenebYour welcome Deneb. I just wanted to set the record straight as many seemed to have some common misconceptions about Low Dose Naltrexone. It is a very beneficial therapy for the vast majority of users. The statistics quoted in regard to those who benefit were also inaccurate with some 70 - 90%, depending on how you are measuring, of users do find it effective.
About 10 - 20% will experience mild transient side effects such as sleep disturbance and vivid dreaming, among others. Most of these pass quickly and are often avoided by starting with a very low dose and increasing gradually.
Many use a natural sleep aid such as Melatonin, GABA, Tryptophan, Herbal Sleep Aids or at times prescription sleep aids. Personally I find Melatonin adequate for this. Although I do use a combination of a sustained release and a fast release sub lingual Melatonin to work the best for me.
Please everyone remember to sign the EU Petition. And tell your friends and networks about LDN and the Petition. Our power to overcome the disinformation from Big Pharma is to spread the word directly!
Anyone in any country can sign so please help us promote the human right to access and full disclosure by physicians of information on the benefits of LDN in MS. HIV/AIDS, Autism and all autoimmune diseases and some Cancers.
