Naltrexone had been FDA approved for many, many years, and has undergone several extremely high dosage trials, for as much as 300 mg per day. We are only using 3.0 - 4.5 mg per day (about 1% of the trial dosage).

I sent a quick e-mail to my brother last night and when he got into his office in the morning, he send a quick reply.
I just wanted to run it by him to see if he had heard any negatives.
As you read, he is not familiar with the drug at all.
All the websites referenced seem to center around one doctor or Skip's pharmacy. Even the .org (which is for me, more reliable) said that LDN had not been tested for MS.
I also asked my friend, a pharmacist, who mixes this compound for patients. She has no MS patients but does make it for others. She had no problem with the low toxic dosage.
I hope I helped with your confusion...
