That being said Aleve works wonders. I am on it and am happy about it so far and was able to stop 5 or 6 meds with pain meds included

here is the link to the thread and it has some links within to direct you to a web page or two about LDN

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread50240-54.html

the thread is at the top of this forum, in case you had not found it by now

A major problem with this med seems to be the neuro's themselves, number of them have no idea about it and others immediately think of the junkie dose saying whooooaa nelly

hope some of this helps


peace

Say what, Frank? LDN doesn't contain opiates! It is totally non-addictive. (Wait a minute, what street corner do you get yours from?)


"What is naltrexone? -- Naltrexone is a medication that blocks the effects of drugs known as opioids (a class that includes morphine, heroin or codeine). It competes with these drugs for opioid receptors in the brain."


Why don't you tell Brenda how you are the one on LDN who still takes Copaxone too?
