Prescribed Low-Dose Naltrexone for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

4.5 is an extremely high dose. I started at like .25 lol. It did not work for me and made me very tired, but I am part of a Facebook group who say that it changed their lives! My mom’s fatigue had also improved drastically since being on LDN! Everyone is different, but I definitely would start on a much lower dose and then titrate up. It can cause some pretty nasty symptoms if you take too much right away! Crossing my fingers and praying it works for you ❤️❤️

My doctor suggested this to me in the office just the other day and I was thinking of doing it. Should I try it?

Can I ask, how does this medicine work?

I was just prescribed this too. I hope it helps the both of us 😸 I was told to start at 0.5 and increase gradually but everyone’s dosing situation is different.

Are they having you start at 4.5?????? You really need to titrate up. I’m no doctor of course but beware of extra side effects starting at the high dose! I add 0.5 every three days. I’m just getting to the full 4.5 now and it seems to be working!
