Low dose naltrexone
LDN is low dose naltrexone. My primary care physician in NYC called the prescription to Mayo Clinic pharmacy for me. It’s is an opioid antagonist used to treat opioid addictions. It appears to have an anti inflammatory effect when used at 1/10 th of the standard dose . You start at 1.5 mg for two weeks, then 4 mg for 2 weeks then the standard dose is 4.5 mg once daily. One of the mechanisms of long Covid is chronic inflammation. Other mechanism may include micro blood clots. mitochondrial oxidation issues and classic autoimmunity. An immunologist yesterday advised me to consider Paxlovid, aspirin, statin and prednisone 5 mg daily .
