i guess what im asking is what can we do to aide the naltrexone on its way and to do its job?

I was told (by the doctor who prescribes my LDN) that it really doesn't matter what time I take it....but that I just need to be consistent and take it at the same time. Now, he did say it needed to be before I went to bed for the night. So, I take it around 8 PM every night. He also told me it didn't matter if I ate anything right before I took it.
BTW...I tried to go up to 4.5 and had leg pain so I went back down to 3.0. And I am not considered petite....I'm 5'8".

Thanks for asking! I haven't gotten the results yet. Hopefully I will today. My Neuro should have gotten the films by 5 PM yesterday. I'll post the results as soon as I know what they are.
