Low-dose naltrexone (LDN) is an off-label use of the medication naltrexone, typically in doses ranging from 1.5 to 4.5 mg per day. LDN is believed to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation, potentially providing relief for conditions such as autoimmune diseases, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, and certain types of cancer. It’s thought to work by briefly blocking opioid receptors, leading to increased production of endorphins and other beneficial effects. LDN is often used as an adjunct therapy and should be prescribed and monitored by a healthcare professional.

Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) 1.5 mg is a small amount of the drug naltrexone, which is typically used at higher doses (50 mg) to treat opioid and alcohol dependence. At low doses like 1.5 mg, it’s used off-label for a completely different purpose — to modulate the immune system and reduce inflammation.

Here’s a simple breakdown:

What it is:

• Naltrexone is a medication originally developed to block opioid receptors.
• At low doses (1.5 mg to 4.5 mg), it’s thought to temporarily block these receptors just enough to cause the body to produce more of its natural endorphins.

Common Uses of LDN 1.5 mg:

LDN is not FDA-approved for these conditions, but many people use it off-label for:

• Autoimmune diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis)
• Chronic pain conditions (e.g., fibromyalgia)
• Inflammatory diseases (e.g., Crohn’s disease)
• Certain cancers (as an experimental or supportive therapy)
• Long COVID (being explored in some cases)

How it works (in theory):

• Blocks opioid receptors briefly
• Triggers an increase in endorphin production
• Modulates immune function and reduces inflammation

Typical dose:

• Starting dose is often 1.5 mg, then may increase gradually up to 4.5 mg based on the person’s response.
• Usually taken at bedtime.

Possible Side Effects (usually mild):

• Sleep disturbances or vivid dreams
• Headache
• Digestive issues
• Temporary increase in symptoms before improvement

Important Notes:

• LDN must be compounded by a pharmacy, as it’s not commercially available in low doses.
• Not to be taken with opioid pain medications, as it blocks their effects.

1. What is LDN 1.5 mg used for?
It is used off-label to support conditions like autoimmune diseases, chronic pain, inflammation, fibromyalgia, and neurological disorders.

2. Is this the same as the regular 50 mg naltrexone?
No. LDN is a much smaller dose (1.5 mg vs. 50 mg) and is used for different purposes like immune support rather than addiction treatment.

3. Can I take LDN with opioid medications?
No. LDN blocks opioid receptors and can interfere with opioid-based painkillers or cause withdrawal. Always consult your doctor first.

4. How long before I see results?
Some users notice changes in 1–2 weeks, but most experience gradual improvements over 4–8 weeks or longer.

5. When should I take LDN 1.5 mg?
Typically taken once daily at bedtime to align with the body’s endorphin cycle.
