Default Low Dose Naltrexone???
Anyone tell me the dosage and frequency on a scrlpt? I have not one, but two doctors who are willing to write it but are unsure of the dosage.

ARGH....it is so tough to get anything done in the RSD world and I hate being the 'doctor' (which I am not!)

Have your doctors contact Dr Chopra from RI his number is 401- 729-4985. He knows all about this treatment and even I am going to start in a couple weeks.

I am now taking 4.5 mg. of low dose naltrexone. I also take it before bed. I had some strange dreams in the beginning but now no side effects.
