Low dose naltrexone for Post-Covid Recovery experiences ?

Posted by radapanich @radapanich, May 15, 2023

Does anyone have experiences with low dose naltrexone for long Covid symptoms of significant brain fog, post-exertional fatigue, joint pain, muscle pain - inflammation, insomnia. A few studies in late 2022 indicate that low dose naltrexone 4.5 mg is helpful . Do you know of a specific doctor in NYC who prescribes it?

I just started taking LDN in tablet form. Each tablet is 4.5 mg. I have a pill splitter, and my doctor is having me take 1/4 pill for a week, 1/2 for a week, 3/4 for a week. Whole pills after that.

Has it helped anyone regulate their gut issues? I'm either constipated or have to stay near a bathroom. I've tried everything!!

Has anyone talked to doctors about photobiomodulation (red light laser) for long covid symptoms ie. fatigue, brain fog, gastrointestinl?

I have been on it for three months and it has helped my brain fog and fatigue noticeably. I started at 1.5 MG and now at 3mg. Hasn't really helped muscle and joint pain. My PCP prescribed it. I showed her this study and it helped convince her..

You can get it at almost any compounding pharmacy. You can find them online and also in your local areas.
