Default Don't Double Up and Don't Skip Doses

Low dose naltrexone is different than the other disease-modifying therapies. The CRAB drugs (Copaxone, Rebif, Avonex and Betaseron) are long-acting immunomodulating drugs. Naltrexone is not. Naltrexone has the mechanism of blocking opioid receptors and (probably) stimulating the release of endorphins, which happens shortly after it is taken. What this means is that there are distinct immediate effects of Naltrexone that we can feel, mostly in the quality of our sleep and in unusually lucid dreams.
