There are medication‘s for LSN. But the one that has tested as 85% effective is available only in Japan. It is called LYFNUA (Gefapixant). It is manufactured in Merck Pharmaceuticals, New Jersey. Our FDA has not approved it because it has a side effect in some people of a metallic taste.
They are going to revisit the test for this but they said they did not know when.
The medication that some people are using are the following: Amitriptyline, pre-Gabalin, Gabapentin, etc. I had LSN literally all my life. And I went through all kinds of tests and doctors did not know what this was so they said: allergy or maybe asthma or a maybe reflux. But it wasn’t.
Now doctors are learning about LSN. Hopefully, Merck pharmaceuticals will pursue their second testing of the medication that is currently used and legal in Japan.

Wow. This new drug sounds encouraging but so sad it’s not available. I am taking Amitriptyline
and it seems to help slightly. Have you taken Gabapentin?
